Best Practices Stop Blacklisting with an SMTP Relay Service By Ciara Noonan | 1 minute read You’ve got a web hosting company to run. Whether you’re one person with two shared servers, or a global powerhouse with dedicated outbound email gateways, it’s a constant challenge to make outbound email work reliably for your customers. Dealing with spammers, email security issues and the problems they cause wastes valuable IT and support resources — which you could be investing in growth and customer satisfaction. Consider the following: What if cyber criminals suddenly exploit 200 WordPress accounts and start sending two million spams per hour across a swathe of your IP space? What if Spamhaus lists your entire network or puts your company on the ROKSO (Register of Known Spam Operations) list? What if AOL blocks you and you can’t get through to their support line to fix the problem? What if you can’t get them to take your email, no matter what you do? A hosted SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) relay service — such as MailChannels Cloud — solves these issues and more.
