have you seen any 'probes' from dnsrbl.net in response to your 'remove' request. Most RBL's probe with their tests as a response. When the tests don't work (or do work depending on the logic!) they should take you off the RBL fairly shortly.

I've checked all 3 MXs listed for vevers.net and none of them are listed
in any DNSBLs I can see, including dnsrbl.net.

I work for an ISP - we have a number of mail exchangers - my domain is not
on the affected server .... and the particular server (194.238.48.13) is
still listed.



I hate to ask the obvious but did you follow the instructions for removal
on this page?    http://www.dnsrbl.net/getremoved.html
Of course .... twice.
Anyone on the list care to comment on the most effective way to get their
mailservers taken off unresponsive RBL's? (other than not let them be on there in the first place). We think we know how this one happened but it would be
nice to know so that we can be sure we've plugged the hole - we were never
even informed that the server and had been listed in the first place - we
found out the hard way. I do think that RBL's operators ought to at least
respond to legitimate attempts to clear up issue.

Regards
Mark
