Mail Abuse great-site.net

Error Message

Undeliverable mail

Other Information

My mailprovider KPN blocks outgoing mails that contain hamakers . great-site .net in the text. They say great-site.net generates a lot of spam that is why they blocked it.

First this must be solved by the provider of great-site before they unblock it

Unfortunately, Free Hosting has downsides like these. If one subdomain sends spam, the root is then blocked, affecting everyone.

You may have to use another email service to send emails, or you may have to try another domain that doesn’t end in great-site.

As Jri said, its unfortunaitly an issue with free hosting.

Because its free, there are people who will take advantage and ruin it for everyone else :frowning:

You can’t just “solve” the problem of spam on a domain with tens of thousands of different active subdomains with about as many different people managing them, and many new sites being created every day.

The only way to “solve” that is to stop offering free subdomains. But I don’t think you want us to do that.

I really wish there was no abuse on our hosting. But just like KPN cannot guarantee that none of their customers commit crimes using their services, we cannot guarantee the same from our half a million users.

Exactly this. Unfortunaitly hanging a sign over the door saying “please dont use our service for spam” doesn’t stop people… in some ways I feel like it attracts a lot of spam…

Hanging a door sign saying “Please don’t spam” encourages about 10x more spam.

Which is what my WebMail client deals with every day, but a nice huge wall I can stop it.
