SpinNet Customer Support Center
In August 2004, there were so many spam emails sent to our email server, and there was a delay in delivering emails due to the overload of our mail servers. These malicious spam emails still continue to be sent to our mail servers today.
As a measure to block these spam emails, SpinNet has decided to refer to the databases of spam-oversight organizations as stated below.
Emails sent from Global IP addresses listed above are currently being rejected by our email servers. And the sender will receive the error as below.
e.g.)
554 Service unavailable; [**.**.**.**] blocked using bl.spamcop.net,
reason: Blocked - see
http://www.spamcop.net/bl.shtml?**.**.**.**
In rare cases, some customers may experience a difficulty in sending email due to this sever setting. In that case, please see the following instruction to solve the problem.
