Xtra RBL Block
by Graeme Ruthven 29 Nov '21

29 Nov '21

Long time listener, first time caller. Could someone from Xtra/Spark please contact me off-list to address this issue, or someone point me in the right direction. Our server, that hosts a number of domains, crashed and burned at the end of last week and we have moved our services to a cloud-based server. Everything is working fine, except for email from anyone to an @xtra.co.nz address. I have tried calling both the Xtra and Spark Broadband service desks and just get the runaround. One guy hung up on me when I may have been a bit terse (but didn't swear!) after over an hour and several people who just didn't get it. The second one went round in circles where they told me the issue had to be raised by an Xtra users... I find it hard to believe that we're the culprit, as the block was immediate, so may reflect a previous occupier in that network block. MXToolbox says that our IP address isn't on a block list. Sample log entry below, redacted for privacy: Nov 30 04:11:06 email postfix/smtp[192702]: 2C407406FE: to=<REDACTED(a)xtra.co.nz> , relay=mx.xtra.co.nz[210.55.143.33]:25, delay=17287, delays=17285/0.03/2.2/0, d sn=4.7.1, status=deferred (host mx.xtra.co.nz[210.55.143.33] refused to talk to me: 554 5.7.1 Connection from REDACTED rejected due to an RBL match) Any assistance gratefully received.

Hi all The NZNOG Trust wishes to announce the NZNOG 2022 conference. We will aim to host this from January 26-28th, 2022, in Wellington at the Intercontinental Hotel. As usual, the conference will be on Thursday and Friday, with some tutorials available on Wednesday. More details on the conference will be posted to our website when available. Expect a further announcement when registrations open. As usual, a social function will be held on the Thursday night of the conference. NZNOG has been running for many years and is highly regarded for both its content and the community aspect of the conference. Due to this, if the ongoing Covid-19 Pandemic does not allow our standard, expected conference in January 2022, the NZNOG Trustees will postpone or cancel the conference. We have secured a tentative, backup dates of April 6-8th 2022, however, if this is still impacted by Covid-19 we will need to cancel for 2022. We are seeking sponsors and have recently finalised our sponsorship document for NZNOG 2022. To ensure a safe and enjoyable conference, the NZNOG Trust fully supports the use of vaccine certificates, and any other safety measures that our government may support or mandate. www.nznog.org Regards Dave On behalf of the NZNOG Trust
