I noticed this as well, after having long, long lookup times for the past couple of days, it started claiming just about every IP that connected to us was on the list. It really seems to have gone belly up or someone just set it to respond as "Yes" for every query.... Oh well, not in use here anymore :)
-----Original Message----- From: James Miller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 26, 2003 4:33 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [SAtalk] OSIRUSOFT -- should they be used any more? With all the trouble OSIRUSOFT is having, is it time to stop using them? As of 12:40 this afternoon our mail server stopped accepting mail from our main web server because it was listed on osirusoft. How I don't know since it doesn't run an SMTP server -- it's protected by a dmz firewall which allows 80-443 in, smtp 25 to our internal mail server and >1024 out to the world, it's completely upto date, runs Norton virus scanner and tcpdump over 3 hrs only shows it sending messages to our internal mail server. It's hard coded to send billing, cancellation, reactivation messages to exactly one mail server on the inside of our firewall. news.admin.net-abuse.email is filled with messages/complains about them from companies complaining that Joe Jared (founder of osirusoft and spews) isn't responding to request to find out why their listed and how to get off the list. Also, it seems they are facing several law suites from several large corporation. And to add to it, they are (have been since Friday) under a DDoS attack, their web site is down, mail is not flowing to them (because of the attack I assume) and I don't know what to do to get us off the list before our class 'C' networks get added short of calling him or sending a fax. But I've been told that he will permanently black list anyone who calls or faxes him directly. I have complete removed all osirusoft check in SA and Sendmail. It may be time to completely remove them from SA all together.
