ℹ️ About This Blocklist

Level 2 lists whole IP ranges, typically a /24, when too many addresses in that range trip the Level 1 list. Every IP in the range is affected, including the well-behaved ones.

What a Listing Means

Your /24 has too many spam sources in it. Your specific IP may be clean — you are caught by the neighbours.

🔢 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 UCEPROTECT L2 (whole-range listing)

⏳ How Listings Clear

You cannot delist a single IP from L2 on your own. Either move to a cleaner range, push your hosting provider to discipline the spammers in the block, or pay UCEPROTECT for express removal.
