Maybe it is because you are using an alias email. I forget all the
internet/email-eze, but spam blockers often block anything that has no
"reverse lookup". I get this also with the ieee.org alias, but not the
direct email.

Just a guess

Subject: [SI-LIST] OT: PCI-SIG maillist blocked


This is off-topic for this group, but I am wondering if anyone other than
just me is unable to use the PCI mail reflector (pci-sig@xxxxxxxx) anymore.
I'm asking here because there used to be members here who belonged to that
list too.

I've been a subscriber there for, must be about a dozen years now, and
starting a month or two ago I can't send email to it, nor to many other
znyx.com addresses.  They get blocked with some sort of message about
"Spam_blocked_spam_source" and "see_http://dnsbl.sorbs.net/";.

SORBS stands for "Spam and Open Relay Blocking System" and is one of a
handful of services that catalogs address that are known to send or enable
spam.  But my address and Znyx are not in their database, so this doesn't
make sense.

Does this sound familiar?

Is this something we need to look forward to in the future ... more and more
people and businesses you can't communicate with via email because they get
blocked for reasons beyond your control?
