I am looking for information from the other side, sort of.
A few days ago I sent a message which was returned by an intended recipient's ISP with this message, "your server is an open relay, see http://www.imrss.org/ Service unavailable"
Going to the site i find that this is an organization which apparently complies lists of open relay sites and ISPs can use this information to block whole domains. I talked to my ISP, they said that they were not an open relay, I talked to the rejecting ISP, they were little help, the recipients of the bounced email did not get any information.
When I search for this organization I find very little information. I am wondering if anyone on this forum has information on this organization.
i manage a tech support group doing support for a lot of games, educational and edutainment things. We send a lot of email around the world. we had never run into this before, i am trying to evaluate the impact of this on our ability to function. is this a list that is widely subscribed to? My ISP and my IT department had not heard of this organization.
So far, my contact with them has been less than positive. I have been called names, had my intelligence and integrity challenged and been sworn at. Behavior i would not condone on any of my support teams.
