blacklisted dynamic IP addresses

[vicky-webcat]

I checked my IP address and found its blacklisted (host86-147-154-205.range86-147.btcentralplus.com).

I rebooted my router and got two further new ip addresses all blacklisted still, the last by:  RATS Dyna, SORBS DUHL, Spamhaus Zen ,b.barracudacentral.org , dul.dnsbl.sorbs.net - checked by MXToolbox . You can see the host is BT, its not a VPN. Why are BT IP addresses blacklisted? I cant seem to get one that isnt. I expect a bit better from BT than this!

Please edit this post to remove your up address.

Dynamic IP address are usually added to blocked lists and shouldn't be used for MX servers ect...

what harm could there be displaying one of BT's dynamically assigned IP addresses?  I am not using it for MX server

Is there a point to your original post or is it just an observation? All ISP dynamic IP addresses are blacklisted.

I didnt know that, thank you for telling me. I also dont know how to edit posts. as you can see I am new.

You can only edit a post for an hour after posting anyway. After that, only the mods can edit.

I assumed Distinguished Sages are mods after the first response I recieved, is that not so? I seem to be making a lot of mistakes here. My apologies.

This is just a customer to customer help forum, everyone here, including myself, are just customers.

The only BT Employees are the forum moderators who are clearly marked.

The mods have Mod against their username.

CLs are Community Leaders and have limited options.

Distinguished Sage etc, are just tags given to posters by the forum algorithm based on a number of factors.
