ℹ️ About This Blocklist

The Passive Spam Block List (PSBL) is a conservative blocklist that lists IPs which have sent spam to a network of spam traps. It is self-delisting and does not expire automatically — you must request removal.

What a Listing Means

The IP sent email to a PSBL spam trap. Listings do not expire; you must manually request removal after the spam issue is resolved.

🔢 DNSBL Return Codes

When listed, the DNSBL returns one of these 127.x.x.x addresses. The specific code indicates the reason for the listing.

Return IP Meaning
127.0.0.2 Listed in PSBL

✅ How to Request Delisting

Visit the PSBL removal page and submit your IP. The listing is removed immediately — PSBL is designed for legitimate mail servers that accidentally got listed.
