Issues with email reception due to spamcop.net

Hi,

The blacklist spamcop.net used in YunoHost had a failure yesterday at least between 11:00 UTC and 18:00 UTC.

Some info mention that they forgot to renew their domain (see Countless emails wrongly blocked as spam after Cisco's SpamCop failed to renew domain name at the weekend • The Register )

At least 4 instances were impacted yesterday and didn’t received email yesterday. Probably all yunohost servers are affected.

To check this issues on your side, you can run:

grep "blocked using bl.spamcop.net" /var/log/mail.log

Today, Spamcop.net seems to have recovered its domain.

Note: due to cache dns, it could be possible the problem still occurs on your server. You can try to do this to clear this cache:

systemctl restart dnsmasq
systemctl restart unscd

Hello @ljf,

I suppose we need to restart unscd in place of nscd service.

Ok, I have seen this issue… But for the second command, it returns Unit nscd.service not found ?
I just seen it must be unscd, thanks

It works for me, nice ! I have also see a blacklist with SPFBL which is resolve with this method :wink:
