I get error messages that I'm blocked by XBL, but when I check my IP on your site it's not listed. Why?
In this situation is it probable that the IP had been blocked by XBL, but has been recently removed.
- Data regarding XBL listings are handled by DNS servers all over the Internet, and are cached at mail servers. These can take a little time to update as some systems are faster than others. Please give the issue a couple hours to resolve.
NOTE: If your IP was listed on the XBL, it happened because XBL received either spam or a virus directly from the IP. If the problem that caused the listing is not resolved, the IP will re-list the next time it makes a connection to us.
