This is the rudest, most arrogant abuse complaint I have seen. It is a frigging dial up user. james ----- Original Message ----- From: <RBL> To: <ruthe_herrera () wanadoo fr> Cc: <postmaster@65.19.17.201>; <postmaster () sf-du401 cybermesa com>; <postmaster () cybermesa com>; <abuse () cybermesa com> Sent: Sunday, September 19, 2004 12:32 PM Subject: Email is in RBL _ DENIED _ (by bl.spamcop.se from ruthe_herrera () wanadoo fr reason Sending IP 65.19.17.201 support SPAM )
You have sent a message that has been stopped! This is because of your sending e-mailserver being listed in an anti spam database. You should probably alert your email administrator and/or your ISP and send this email along to him. The only reason a serious ISP or email administers would be on such a list is that he do not yet know about it being listed. Otherwise he would already have fixed the wrongfully configured server. Or he terminated the contract with the offending customer that put him on that list. We have also tried to send this letter on the following standardized addresses: ======================= postmaster@65.19.17.201 postmaster () sf-du401 cybermesa com postmaster () cybermesa com abuse () cybermesa com ======================= But very often administrators that don't know how to configure a secure mailserver, don't know that they have to implement these system addresses either. And we feel that you will probably get better results if you call or send this your self. Most responses we get are about the spelling and grammar from postmasters and administrators. They are usually angry that we have made their customers aware about their problems. This is kind of silly as the Information given is easy to understand anyway, and we could have sent the letter in correct Swedish instead. But as our purpose in sending this is neither to make it unreadable nor to make it offensive to anyone. Our purpose is to inform about systems being misused or miss configured so that the administrators gets a fair chance to fix their servers. So if you're an administrators please don't get angry just fix your email servers and we will be happy to relay your messages again. As a result your customers will be happy and you will get less angry calls and letters making you happy as well. The few administrators, postmasters and ISP's that just don't give a damn, will probably be noticed by their customers anyway. As these letters will keep arriving although they are probably just a very small part of the end users problems.
