Wait it out as in - you had better examine your mail queues and purge them of any of the spam that was sent and is still queued up. It'll still take a day or two after that's done for the blocks to subside. On Thu, Nov 22, 2012 at 7:59 AM, Dave Sotnick <sotnickd-nanog () ddv com>wrote:
Thanks Matthew. Sadly, most of the bounce responses have URLs that point you to a help page that doesn't have further contact information or just tells you to wait it out. e.g. http://postmaster.yahoo.com/421-ts03.html http://www.google.com/mail/help/bulk_mail.html I'll do the requisite digging and start contacting postmasters. -Dave On Wed, Nov 21, 2012 at 6:13 PM, Matthew Barr <mbarr () snap-interactive com> wrote:On Nov 21, 2012, at 8:53 PM, Dave Sotnick <sotnickd-nanog () ddv com>wrote:Also had reports that we're still seeing bounces to Gmail, Comcast and Yahoo accounts.The best thing to do is to go ahead and look at the bounce messages fromthe various ISP's, and see if they have any instructions or URL's to contact.If you don't have any of those messages at hand, you can see the bouncecodes in the logs of your mailserver.If you don't have any useful messages in the bounce code, then you canprobably look at the site for each ISP, and google their postmaster group.Matthew Matthew Barr Technical Architect Snap Interactive mbarr () mbarr net
