Toque messages being blocked in the USA

[Toque Snuff]

We are finding a number of US mail providers are blocking our emails. sbcglobal.net, norton1.net, bellsouth.net and gmail.com are the worst. If you have one of these mail providers and you have been trying to contact us please send me a message here and I will respond in the same way.

Think it could be malicious or just an accident?

I don't know your domain, but often when this sort of thing happens, someone has added you to an anti-SPAM RBL.

You can find a "checker" here: https://www.google.com/search?q=rbl+checker

Put your domain into one of those and see if you are on an RBL.

If so, check the RBL page out to see how to get off of it.

Thanks guys, we tracked most of it to AT&T, everytime we contact them they say:

"Thank you for contacting the AT&T Postmaster.

The mail server IP address(es) associated with your request will be removed from the block list within 24-48 hours from the date of this notification. AT&T, Bellsouth, SBC and any affiliates do NOT intentionally block legitimate mail in the course of our anti-spam initiatives and regret any inconvenience this may have caused. If the IP that was recently blocked begins to exhibit the characteristics of a compromised network object or is compromised by an offender of Acceptable Use Policies, the IP address will be blocked again."

but the block always remains.

Yah there are companies that make lists of what is considered "Spam" companies and sell it to people like google or AT&T. Often times legitimate businesses get caught up in that and therefore you are ****ed Toque. Suck man.
