FYI - I'm having the exact same problem - with someone I email almost daily (person is with live.com) with the same message of "Please contact your Internet service provider since part of their network is on our block list."
How long does it normally take to be delisted? (I just tried again a few minutes ago - same issue) |

TekSavvy (like any ISP) needs to open up regular/constant communication channels with all of the DNSBL/RBLs out there. There are 15-20 of them at minimum. But even so, keep in mind that there is absolutely nothing Internet users can do about what DNSBL/RBLs a mail server (NOT TEKSAVVY) chooses to use. Welcome to the Internet, and why using DNSBL/RBLs is both a blessing and a curse.
For what the PTR record returned on lookup means (e.g. 127.0.0.6), please see this chart.

Making spam filtering decisions (so the mail is not lost but is either in the Inbox or spam box) based on RBLs is one thing but simply blocking mail at the front door so to speak is completely idiotic. |
