Do I have a blacklisted ip?

Posted by rowdyplace, 07-28-2011, 08:29 AM
Help me determine if this ip is blacklisted. 173.242.125.181 My email has been getting bounced due to blacklisted ip. The provider is disagreeing with me. I used this link -> http://www.mxtoolbox.com/SuperTool.a...73.242.125.181 to test. to check for blacklisting. It shows up twice as blacklisted yet they say it is clean.. Check it and publish your results or opinion. ------------------------------------------------------- Here is a direct quote from them: 173.242.125.181 is not blacklisted. Best Regards! Support team 1Dollar-WebHosting.com --------------------------------------------------------- Thx - Rowdyplace

Your IP is blacklisted. nslookup 181.125.242.173.bl.tiopan.com Server: 192.168.192.11 Address: 192.168.192.11#53 Non-authoritative answer: Name: 181.125.242.173.bl.tiopan.com Address: 127.0.0.2 From Tiopan's website: How can I check whether my IP is in the Tiopan Blacklist? If your IP is 1.2.3.4 (as an example), then use: nslookup 4.3.2.1.bl.tiopan.com to query. If your IP is in the blacklist, it will return 127.0.0.2. From Uceprotect's website: http://www.uceprotect.net/en/rblchec...73.242.125.181 Your individual IP is not listed: "Who is responsible for this listing? YOU ARE NOT!. Your IP 173.242.125.181 was NOT involved in a spamrun, but has a spammy neighborhood. Other customers within this range did not care about their security and got hacked and started spamming, while your provider has possibly not even noticed that there is a serious problem. We are sorry for you, but you have chosen an provider not acting fast enough on spammers." The IP range 173.242.112.0/20 is listed. Looks like they are using VolumeDrive servers. PLUS you don't have reverse dns, which will affect email deliverability.

Thank you for recommending our Blacklist Lookup tool. It hosts over 150 lists and we are always looking for more lists to our collection as robust as possible. I also wanted to let you know that we offer a free service that will alert you if your server has been blacklisted. It can also alert you if your server goes down. Check it out here: http://mxtoolbox.com/services_servermonitoring.aspx Thanks, @mxtoolbox

MrToolbox: I have my own script that monitors our own IP's, and it uses your lookup tool once a day as well. +1 to mxtoolbox's lookup script.
