Is your Aweber account blacklisted?

I started an email campaign (through my Aweber account) on Friday and noticed some anemic results.

In fact, one of my email addresses that normally receives emails from Aweber did not receive my last three Aweber broadcasts. And open rate is down about 35 to 40% or so.

So I looked up the servers that sent the Aweber emails and it turns out they're on a blacklist.

I got a Spamcop positive and also Squid Malicious.

I checked on sites like:

Email Blacklist Check - See if your server is blacklisted

and

MailBoxTools.com | 5 Second Email Blacklist Check - Is your email server or IP blacklisted?

I found the Aweber email servers by opening up my Gmail account and clicking on the "Show Original" by the reply button options in Gmail.

Here's an example:

Received: from smtp-soi-g03-106.aweber.com ([204.194.223.106]:35981)

You can look up:
smtp-soi-g03-106.aweber.com

or

204.194.223.106

This particular IP is not from one of my own Aweber emails but from another business that uses Aweber.

But I found his IP address also comes up with the Squid Malicious spam listing.

So if you find your open rates, clickthroughs and most importantly sales going down with Aweber then look up your emails and see if your Aweber server is blacklisted as well.

Please let me know if you've been experiencing similar problems.

I've contacted Aweber this weekend and they are looking into it for me. But in the meantime my email broadcasting ability has been seriously compromised.

Thank you,

Roger

  • No, I haven't been experiencing any changes with aweber.

    Maybe it's just particular user?

    Thanks for the share, and those resources are great

      Well it may not be all Aweber accounts that are affected.

      However, I looked up at least 4 different Aweber lists (not my own) and they all were blacklisted.

      I suppose if I keep looking I'll find even more. As they use many different IP Addresses to deliver all of their emails.

      Also I found that GetResponse.com was on a grey list.

      I also found that 1shoppingcart, infusionsoft and I believe iContact were also on blacklists.

      But my main concern is Aweber since that is what I use.

    I've checked again different Aweber lists I'm on. So far every Aweber list web server or IP Address I've checked is "currently" blacklisted.

    That's about 8 different email marketers that I've checked. Of course their emails reached my inbox. But I suspect they're not reaching as many people as they normally would.
