Working as the sysadmin for our company I would like to tell you ablout the latest UCE complaint that has hit my inbox..
We run a community website that sends out newsletters to our customers.
This newsletter is sent out if the users does not uncheck the box "Yes I want too recieve newsletter......bla bla"
A couble of weeks ago mail from our server bounced from AOL due to AOL customer UCE complaints.
As it turns out one single UCE complaint from an AOL customer will get the ip of the sending smtp server banned for a period of 12 hours, but if the server has a PTR record the server will need to generate a lot more complaints before being blocked.
Apart from the time i spent resolving this issue, not counting waiting to get thru to the postmaster group, this easy step would weed out at least a large portion of the spam.
Everybody agrees not to recieve mail from domains without a valid PTR record ?:)
