Re: SMTP server blacklisted?
I am sorry I made a mistake. The heading to “Tech Support” says “Tips and Tricks”, and I did not need a tip or trick. I needed immediate help. I thought someone in the community might be able to help. Again, I thank MarkJFine, who is far more technical that I could ever be for trying to point out that settings having nothing to do with my personal account might be changed to help a lot of people. My apologies, again. Perhaps someone could have pointed me in the right direction a little earlier....7.4KViews0likes3CommentsRe: SMTP server blacklisted?
Dear Brooke, Wow. 9 days to get a response? My issue lasted at least 24 hours. During this time, both native WebMail, and my popped Outlook account were completely hosed. Then things righted themselves. I have no way of knowing what happened in the background. MarkJFine, bless his heart, has been trying to report all the places where HughesNet is blocked or reported on spam lists. I hope someone at HughesNet will now look into this. Thank you for inquiring. Now, if HughesNet would just stop all the spammers from using our addresses to produce spam....so we don't get on the bad lists....7.4KViews0likes8CommentsSMTP server blacklisted?
As of about 7 p.m. EDT this evening (08/18/18), I am not able to send any emails, as I am getting the message that the HughesNet SMTP server IP address is blacklisted. Is this one of those things where I have to wait 24 hours? I know that spam traffic has been terrible of late. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Outlook as in we have Hughes.net email addresses and we both happen to use Outlook as our email clients. i just wonder why HughesNet's spam catcher isn't killing these emails from nelottery.com Outlook's email client puts them in the spam folder, but I want HughesNet to kill them first! And I wonder if the Nebraska Lottery (nelottery.com) knows it is being spoofed! TuKatShak13KViews0likes2CommentsRe: Overwhelmed with Spam in the last three days!
All the spam is coming from <random>@<random>.nelottery.com Since the parameter after the "@" appears to be randomly generated, I don't know how to shut it out. Outlook, indeed, is sweeping all of these to the Junk Folder, but boy, I would love to be able to get to Hughes so that THEIR master spam blocker would stop these in their tracks. And, it is totally possible that nothing can do this. I am SOOOOO darned careful online, so I get really pissed when someone gets my email address and either spams me or spoofs me. I'll have to see if I can find the IP addresses - but I don't know how to filter those, unfortunately.11KViews0likes7CommentsOverwhelmed with Spam in the last three days!
Wow, what is going on? In the last three days, I have gotten over 70 spam emails, some purporting to come from me! Bad spelling, phony gift cards, **bleep** enhancement, sexual positions, you name it. It had been bad about 2 months ago, and then everything cleared up. Now spam has come back with a vengeance - and in huge quantities. Has HughesNet turned off its spam filters? These last three days have been horrible! All the emails go to my spam folder, but why can't HughesNet reject them before they are delivered to me at all? Frustrated in Alabama13KViews1like22Comments
