I am sending an email I have used before and which is delivered by gmail and iCloud but not by plusnet. The message I received from plusnet is:
A message that you sent to the following recipient could not be delivered due to a permanent error. ** The remote server 217.72.192.67 responded with: ** xxxx@r-type.org 550:For explanation visit http://postmaster.1and1.com/en/error-messages?ip=212.159.14.20&c=poli This message was created automatically by mail delivery software on the server avasout08
I also had this message on server avasout07.
Can you explain or help. I cannot do complicated I just need to be able to reach this member of a group.

ooops ... first message disappeared into the ether for a while ...
I have the same problem with email I send from PlusNet to a 1and1 hosted email address.
This is because 1and1 servers are rejecting email from PlusNet servers because:
https://www.spamhaus.org/dbl/removal/record/plus.com
I'd report this to PlusNet but their hold time is 15 minutes and I'm unaware of any other way of contacting their (always excellent staff); since a few years ago when for unexplained reasons they threw away what was the best customer support / issue online tracker system I've ever encountered - daft - it was their crown jewels.

You'd think 1and1 would filter out all the tlds for ISPs from Spamhaus spews - clearly a service to avoid.
I've sent a request myself to try and have this lifted:

Also same problem here with host Claranetsoho
550:(https://www.spamhaus.org/query/domain/plus.com) This message was created automatically by mail delivery software on the server avasout01.
The domain name plus.com is listed on the Spamhaus DBL.
plus.com has been listed in the DBL because it has been hacked. The domain plus.com is currently being abused by cyber-criminals who have hacked the website's hosting or its content management system (typically Wordpress, Joomla, etc) and placed malicious files on the web server. Please clean up this infection before delisting the domain from the DBL. The owner of plus.com can contact Spamhaus at dbl-mmxvi@spamhaus.org for more information about the problem. Read our FAQ on abused legitimate domains for more information.

I tried posting to a colleague a few hours ago and got the same error message as above and the email was returned. It would be nice to think someone at Plusnet Towers is aware and working on this issue? Also, I received a very suspicious email a couple of hours ago, looking very much like a phishing email. It seems to have got through the Plusnet system but it didn't get through mine and got flagged as Junk Mail. I've moved it into the Junk Mail folder on webmail. It looks like the hackers are busy already!

The 'munged' url was plus.com !!!
Luckily, I still have the tab open from before I requested the block lifted.
Here's a screen scrape of what it said:

Spamhaus must have updated their records because subsequently the record says:
"The malicious files can be found here: hXXp://www.sa****f.plus.com/qiu0dfyb"

That should help @bobpullen identify the source of the problem.

Thanks, I've dealt with that now and the file in question has been removed. The listing doesn't appear to be active any more so hopefully it's done the trick.
