    Hi
    We have used enigmail to encrypt messages for long time and very happy with it, however lately we get problem with some anti-spamfilters like zen.spamhaus.org and cbl.abuseat.org

    As the keyword www.enigmail.net appear in the encrypted message header we get the mail return saying the following:

    SMTP error from remote server after transfer of mail text:
    host mail.e-advice.dk[87.116.17.68]:
    521 A URL (www.enigmail.net) in the email resolved to a blacklisted IP:
    521 The IP 217.26.52.43 is Blacklisted by zen.spamhaus.org.
    http://www.spamhaus.org/query/bl?ip=217.26.52.43 -- 521 The IP
    217.26.52.43 is Blacklisted by cbl.abuseat.org. Blocked - see
    http://cbl.abuseat.org/lookup.cgi?ip=217.26.52.43 -- .

    Is this something you have to get whitelisted with zen.spamhaus.org and cbl.abuseat.org or do I missunderstand how this works?

    Hope on a quick answer :)

    Kind Regards Morten

    There is nothing I (or we) can do about it. Enigmail.net is running on a shared server operated by a professional hosting company.

    I'd suggest you disable the option "Add Enigmail comment in OpenPGP signature" in the "Advanced" section of the OpenPGP preferences.
