Some people from various different isp providers are not able to access one of my sites now. It seems that the site, or at least the ip address, is on some sort of spam list. How does one get off of this list? I have enclosed all the information I have. Someone else did the lookup. We are skating in new territory for me. Thanks for any information or help.

Looks like I may have figured out why some of us can't access this site. I'm assuming this is your server. Our new T1 line at the office is through SBC. SBC's business customers use more of these open relay/spam filter lists than say SBC home dsl customers. I did a lookup of the ip address for coloradoriver100.com and found that it's ip address is listed at least in one of these open relay/spam lists. See below:

Anyway, this would explain why I can't get to the website from our new sbc business t1 line but can get to it from our other t1 and from my home sbc dsl line. I am assuming that Blue Boat's ISP also uses this open relay/spam list but that his wife's ISP probably does not.
I went through a simular situation a couple of years ago with our agents in our office not being able to send email to anyone with an aol address b/c aol uses these list too. I had been running my first email server and didn't really know all the details about securing it and had left open relay open. All the spammers were using my email server to do their dirty work and eventually my mail server's ip address got on one of these lists.
That's what I've got. Anybody got any ideas or know what I need to do?
