AT&T Moves Toward Mail-Server Whitelist

Posted by timothy on Tuesday October 21, 2003 @04:49PM from the is-it-better-than-spam dept.

Gunfighter writes "In an apparent attempt to quelch the amount of incoming spam, AT&T has asked their customers, partners, and business clients to provide them with IP addresses of their mail servers. All other mail will be discarded. To quote the message: "... In order to continue to allow email to AT&T you need to provide the IP addresses of all your outbound email gateways. If you do not respond immediately, your access may not continue.""
