Hi, I repeat yet again, the IP here is not mine but that of Orange/Telkoms SMTP server therefore it is only them who can clean their IP addresses therefore making your I terminated my lease line service with Orange/Telkom and moved to the better option, now it seems I have no alternative but to also move my domain hosting from them especially now that they are about to lay off 400 employees which from the previous such exercises had tended to remove the workers and leave behind the politicians.

This could be because your IP is sending spam either intentionally or (usually) unintentionally. Your isp therefore no longer trusts your ip and has hence quarantined it, for a while. This is usually cleared up when you clean and patch up your LAN and whitelist your IP, on the RBL lists or occasionally manually on your ISP's smtp server. This hardly is the mistake of the isp, rather a lapse in vigilance on LAN security issues. -- i dislike capital letters +254 722 278 106 _______________________________________________ kictanet mailing list [email protected] http://lists.kictanet.or.ke/mailman/listinfo/kictanet Unsubscribe or change your options at http://lists.kictanet.or.ke/mailman/options/kictanet/robertyawe%40yahoo.co.u...
