"TDE is the govt run ISP of Spain"

Not a surprise if a country socializes internet access.

Check your sources guys, Telefonica de Espaņa was a public company, but that was before the liberalisation of the telecom. sector.

Cyrano, what's the deal?  TDE is run by the government, yes?  Is your account with TDE?  Can you send e-mail outside of Spain?

WTG !

More big companies are operated by incredible prettythangholes.

Last week i saw british telecom to be on ban list. Biggest cable provider here is on black list as well.

And whats even more funny, that they are sooo big so they belive that they dont have to care about it.


anyway excelent site regarding this theme is http://www.ordb.org


its very good to ban whole AOL as well and all dynamic IP address

In past 4 months i were deploying sutch system for mail filtering and its realy fun to watch all those "pseudo" admins running mai servers.

TdE is a private company and, yes, I can send e-mails outside of the country.

PS: My company works for Terra, which is a part of TdE

sure you can send email to some of email servers, while half of world block your mail server.

Have a good luck with your super cool ISP :)

Actually I have a @terra.es e-mail address, not a @telefonica.net one.

Still, I blame the non-response from Telefonica to incompetence more than anything else. :)

And as long as they pay me handsomely, they are the heck of a good ISP :D

Let us know if the black list becomes effective in a few days.  It won't happen instantly.  

BTW, are you familiar with the issues raised by the link?  (I'm not aware of gross violations by anyone.)

They are, in their most part, true. This will force them to change their ways, at least a little bit... I hope. Here's some wishful thinking :)

lol

btw blocking is based on IP address of sender. So if smtp server will have IP from their network, you wont be able to send your email regardless whats your return email.


i will finish my current work and then i will make small lookup around it and will try to demonstrate you, whats going on.

No prob, I have access to non TdE smtps, so no problem here.

Anyway, I did get the point, I was just stating that I'm not part of the problem :D
