UDM Blacklisted

The University’s email server appears to be blacklisted by one spam filtering site at this time.  The IT staff are working to clear our good name so that all mail will flow smoothly.

 

Blacklisting is a clear result of users given out their credentials (knowingly or unknowingly) to people who then spam many others.  Servers detect high volume coming from certain addresses and then move to block all content – whether legit or spam – from hitting their domain until action is taken to clear the issue.
