oTc Sales & Marketing Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 User name: otc Domain: otc.heliohost.org Hi guys, I have been using mozilla thunderbird to send and receive emails for my self and my employees. It was working fine up until end of last/beginning of this week. I havent made any changes to the config. Showing message: "Sending of message failed. The message could not be sent because the connection to SMTP server mail.otcsalesandmarketing.co.cc timed out. Try again or contact your network administrator." Thanks in advance, Ryan.

Krydos Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 I think I found the reason. http://cbl.abuseat.org/lookup.cgi?ip=65.19.143.2 IP Address 65.19.143.2 is listed in the CBL. It appears to be infected with a spam sending trojan or proxy. It was last detected at 2011-10-10 11:00 GMT (+/- 30 minutes), approximately 1 days, 7 hours, 30 minutes ago. It has been relisted following a previous removal at 2010-09-09 01:43 GMT (397 days, 17 hours, 12 minutes ago) It should be delisted soon. This seems to only be affecting stevie server. Unlike last time I did remember to check johnny as well.

oTc Sales & Marketing Posted October 11, 2011 Author Share Posted October 11, 2011 thanks for looking into it. have you got a rough idea how long a delisting usually takes? Also I would appreaciate it if you could post when its back up and running? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krydos Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 If you had clicked my link you would have seen that IP Address 65.19.143.2 is not listed in the CBL. It was previously listed, but was removed at 2011-10-11 18:59 GMT (1 hours, 37 minutes ago) It's already delisted. However long it takes to propagate through the innumerable email systems of the world is anyone's guess though. I just tested an email account on stevie and it worked both directions. So, I guess it propagates pretty fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oTc Sales & Marketing Posted October 12, 2011 Author Share Posted October 12, 2011 its still timing out for me, with the same message as before. receiving emails absolutely fine, but timing out when i try to send. settings are as follows: "SMTP SERVER: Server name: mail.otcsalesandmarketing.co.cc Port: 25 Connection Security: SSL/TLS Authentication Method: Normal Password user name: ryan.tate+otcsalesandmarketing.co.cc" can you see any errors on my behalf?
