You are receiving this message because this, or one of your mail relays (see below for details) is open to third party (free) relaying and has been abused to send unsolicited bulk email (spam) to America Online, Inc.'s email system. Below, you will see output from our database indicating which tests we performed on your system, and the time at which the last test was performed. For example, if you see: mail from: rcpt to: it means we were able to send a piece of email with a "from" address of "CloseYourOpenRelay@aol.com" through your system, back to the email account "CloseYourOpenRelay@aol.com". (The email address "CloseYourOpenRelay@aol.com" doesn't exist -- it's greater than 16 characters -- but the fact that your system tried to deliver to that address indicates that your server is available for free relaying. We encourage you to use this email address as a test... you will receive undeliverable email back from AOL's Mailer-Daemon if you are open to free relaying.) Here's your server data: Date: Tue Jul 15 03:05:00 2003 mail from: rcpt to: rcpt to: rcpt to: This is the only proactive notification you will receive alerting you to the block AOL has placed on your mailserver. Your server is now blocked from sending email to AOL owned email properties. If your server is intentionally open and you wish it never to be tested again, please send an email to openrelay@aol.net with the subject line "forever open, don't test" and your IP address(es) in the body of the email. AOL will then put your IP(s) into the Forever Open Don't Test list. *** Please keep in mind that if you do this, your server will be blocked and will REMAIN blocked until you send an email to openrelay@aol.net and ask AOL to start testing your server again. *** For more information about Open Relays (including some troubleshooting tips), please visit http://postmaster.info.aol.com, or do a search for "Open Relay" on the Internet.
