Relay.plus.net being blacklisted for outbound email

Hi,
It appears that plus.net's SMTP relay's are being blacklisted by several lists, any idea when the issue will be fixed?
Thanks.

That's not going to be the cause Pierre, that work will actually cut down the amount of blacklists we appear on.

Can you raise a ticket with the bounce back error message you received, we'll need this to see which list is rejecting your email.

Looks like pcl-ipout01.plus.net and host ptn-ipout02.plus.net are listed by SORBS. I'll give our Net-Ops guys a nudge to make sure they're aware...

In fact, scrap that!
I used the wrong host names. Should have been relay.ptn-ipout01.plus.net, relay.ptn-ipout02.plus.net, relay.pcl-ipout01.plus.net and relay.pcl-ipout02.plus.net and none of those are listed by SORBS.
