[Cialug] Email Trouble Ticket #945027

[dave]

Sorbs is a blacklisting service, like spamhaus etc. I've been "lucky" 
enough to have my dchamp.net domain on the Sorbs blacklist before.

If you visit their site, you can search for your domain, and it will 
tell you why you're on their list. Could be a variety of reasons, 
chances are you can fix the issue and get de-listed.

Until then, good luck. A lot of domains use Sorbs and other blacklist 
services.
