Welcome to StopSpam.org, the purpose of this site is to provide a few resources for the end user and server admin to attempt to track down the source of the spam and abuse that is growing incrementally. It is meant to provide you the end user with some information only. This site is not a place to complain about spam or abuse, we all get it and it will only get worse. If you are here looking for solutions to someone that is directing abuse towards you and only you then you are at the wrong place. In those instances I suggest you review your options and contact local authorities. Contacting your ISP will only burn their cycles and get no real resolution, you might consider just blacklisting the person. Think of it this way, if someone made threats to you in a Starbucks who would you contact, Starbucks or your local police if the threat was severe enough. I suggest doing the same. If you are here because your email has been blocked it is likely because the IP address that your email originated from sent what we believed to be a spam to an account that we are fairly certain did not want to get that spam. These addresses are not published on purpose so we can continue to receive email from the all the various idiot spammers out there.There are a limited number of mail hosts using our Blacklists at this time, they are very much in a beta stage but we have had promising results. If you do not know what a Blacklist is or an ip address or really do not care you can click the links above to learn if you like or perhaps this site is not for you. If you still are confused what to do about your mail being blocked if that is why you are here then I suggest talking to your ISP. If you are the ISP and are being blocked email abuse at iinet.com with the relevant details including how to email a human in your NOC, if you do not know what a NOC is you are probably not the ISP :-) |
