I checked my IP address against SORB, mine came out clear. Perhaps it's only affecting part of the TCL's IP range?

You have to check the smtp server, not your personal IP. This IP address resolves to smtp4.clear.net.nz.

Ok. I'm using smtp.paradise.net.nz (203.97.33.229) and it passes DNS Stuff's spam database look up.

I've had this problem, a year or two ago, trying to send a message to a friend in Slovakia. The only way to resolve it, since his ISP was not prepared to discuss their use of SORBS (Blackmailing pack of thieves) was to change ISP's. This he did. Problem solved.
Apparently it was caused by one computer in the address range (not mine) having been recognized as sending out bulk spam.

I just sent an e-mail to Microsoft New Zealand and it bounced complaining about smtp.clear.net.nz being blacklisted...

Shame.

Try sending it via a Hotmail account. Worked for me.

I have a shared server in the US, that gets around problems with ISP systems.

A friend complained that mail to me was rejected so I tried sending one myself using the Paradise SMTP server (I have a TCL cable connection).

Got this message

Reason: Rejection greeting returned by server.

  Diagnostic code: smtp;553 Connections are being blocked due to a high number of invalid recipients

  Remote system: dns;smtp-in.myrealbox.com (TCP|203.97.37.64|36332|72.8.126.134|25)


Wonder that means?

My receipient address was xxx@myrealbox.com

This means that the remote mail server smtp-in.myrealbox.com is blocking the clear server 203.97.37.64 because of its Spam Blocking policys. ISPs such as Clear have multiple outbound MTA's so if you keep trying to send it should eventually go through as it is unlikely that all of there MTA's have been blocked....

Gave up in the end and moved to the SMTP server of my mail provider instead.
