Re: ORDB related? This appears to be hitting a lot of companies. This was sent be the admin of the company I work for:
"Today, a once-widely used Blacklisting service, Open Relay Database (ORDB), that stopped updating their database last year, enforced the deprecation of their service by blacklisting the entire world. Our mail servers check for open mail relays in an effort to control inbound spam and spam relaying. In essence, because ORDB blacklisted everyone, our mail servers were told that ANY email server trying to send mail to us was an Open Mail Relay, so we rejected the message and bounced it back to the sender. We've since updated our server configs to look to other services and get mail moving." |
