Author: Blacklisting email does not work…
Our mail servers delete ALL blacklisted emails daily. In other words, blacklisting of your spam email does NOT work!
Spam email is sent from thousands of hacked servers and personal computers, thus the origination of each spam email shows a different location and is never the same. The same goes with the return email address, which is ALWAYS different, as well as the subject, text in the email and everything else. Since everything in spam is always different, there is NO way to blacklist email. That’s why it does not work.
The only thing blacklisted email does is use valuable server resources. Blacklisting will NOT stop the spam. As a result, every 24 hours our mail servers DELETE all email blacklisted.
