Re: Monitoring for Spam Listings

In recent times, I have had emails trapped/rejected supposedly due to spam
or other reporting issue from my ISP, however, I have discovered that if I
resend the emails they will often go through without issue.

I suspect that there may be some software anomalies that could be at fault.

Well, not hearing about it might just mean that people aren't even aware
that they are supposed to be getting mail.

There have been a number of occasions when I noticed a list subscriber
posting a valid message to one of my lists and my mail server found the
address in one of the RBL's it uses.

The person sending the post was totally unaware that their mail server had
been listed in a RBL.

FWIW: When my mail server rejects a message because of RBL, it sends a
message something like "Rejected - see
http://www.spamhaus.org/query/bl?ip=151.33.29.133 - questions: david at
fallingrock.net". Spammers ignore the message, humans don't.
