So, I mission off to the site to get the IP unblacklisted

and i get:

Website Offline
2005-06-19: Openrbl.org has been run on autopilot for the last couple of years.
But now the site lost the backend where the databases was built twice per day.
Unless somebody invests time to rebuild everything the website will remain offline.

OMG you *have* to be kidding me, first off all you needed to do was switch server or recconect and get a new IP, this is not a real ban or they would ban your ident too. Second of all use the south african efnet server, irc.ac.za.

you know you posted this in that smtp thread:

Luckily I only use Iburst as my connection, so relaying through wbs`s server is the quickest solution. However, I can understand arthur`s concern`s though.

Hows this for an idea?, prehaps make it a defaul that you have to relay thought their server, however, WBS should allow users to contact them, to unlock this feature. The unlocked accounts can be monitored for abuse or something.

so which is it, do you want them to allow smtp or do you want to have wbs IPs not blacklisted on spam lists, because you don't get both.

and by the way one last thing, you wouldn't of got the IP removed from that list anyway even if the site wasn't no longer on a backend
 
If they banned you it woukdnt be your ip, it would be your GUID.
Every pc has one, and you can change it. unlees you format or buy new hdd;)

Yes because your OS will be gone and it will be a blank media, so therefore you cannot change it, but can change it if you don't format.
 
not to be all naggy here but um your GUID is not apart of the IRC protocol at all, you have 3 identifying features, an ident, a hostmask and a nickname they can only use a combination of those to ban you, even if it were part of the protocol (which it isnt seeing as how the protocol was last updated like what, 13 years ago) you would just get clients that omit or spoof that data, so it wouldn't be worth anybodies time.
