    <div class="moz-cite-prefix">Well I phoned the Manitoba government
      and 4 numbers later. I was advised to get a government employee to
      open a support ticket as only government employees can do so.
      Looks like I have a few more phone calls to make before this will
      get resolve. And maybe a dozen more run-arounds.<br>
      <br>
      Thanks for your help,<br>

            I can gather from searching around on the internet, EDS is a
            rather generic acronym for e-mail defense service, of which
            there seem to be a few around. &nbsp;So that doesn't really help
            narrow down exactly which block list your server is still

            <br>
            There used to be a multi-list checker at <a

              target="_blank">openrbl.org</a>, but that doesn't seem to
            be there anymore. &nbsp;However, the domain did redirect me (in
            probably what is the first case I've seen of a useful
            redirection of a lapsed DNS domain to a "parking page") to

            They have a multi-blacklist checker, in which you can check
            your server's IP address against many lists. &nbsp;The initial
            scan is against 35 lists, but if you click on the link
            "Check All Blacklists" you'll get a test against over 100
            lists. &nbsp;There is also another multi-blacklist checker here:
            &nbsp;<a moz-do-not-send="true"
              href="http://whatismyipaddress.com/blacklist-check"
              target="_blank">http://whatismyipaddress.com/blacklist-check</a>
            . &nbsp;If neither checker finds any, or if one does and after
            getting off those lists you still can't send to <a
              moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://gov.mb.ca"
              target="_blank">gov.mb.ca</a>, I'd suggest getting in
            touch with them to find out who their blackhole list
            provider is.

                I have inherited a poorly maintained SMTP server with
                lots of spam going through this server everyday. I have
                slowly been killing off spammers mail accounts and
                removing the server from various blockilists. And the

                also able to send mail to almost everyone again, except

                domain. I get the reply "refused by EDS blackhole list".<br>
                <br>
                My question is, how do I get my server unblocked by the
