Properties

Description

property Description: string

Additional information about the blacklisting event.

This field contains descriptive information provided by the blacklist maintainer about why the IP address was added to their blacklist. The description typically explains the type of activity or behavior that triggered the listing. Common reasons for blacklisting include spam complaints, malware distribution, compromised accounts, policy violations, or suspicious sending patterns. The description helps identify the root cause and determine appropriate remediation steps. This field may be empty or unavailable for some blacklist providers, as not all blacklist maintainers provide detailed explanations for their listings.

ListingTime

property ListingTime: TOptional<TDateTime>

The time when the IP address was first added to the blacklist.

This timestamp indicates when the blacklisting event occurred, helping you correlate the listing with specific email sending activities or security incidents that may have triggered the blacklist entry. Understanding the timing of blacklist entries is crucial for incident investigation and helps identify patterns or specific events that led to reputation damage. Use this information to review email logs and security events from around the same time period. Some blacklist providers may not provide precise timing information, in which case this field may be empty or contain an approximate time.

RblName

property RblName: string

The name of the blacklist where the IP address appears.

This identifies the specific Real-time Blackhole List (RBL) or Domain Name System Blacklist (DNSBL) that contains the IP address. Different blacklists have varying criteria, reputation, and impact on email deliverability. Well-known blacklists include Spamhaus, SURBL, Barracuda, and many others. Each blacklist has its own removal procedures, policies, and timelines for delisting IP addresses once issues have been resolved. Understanding which specific blacklist contains your IP address is essential for determining the severity of the impact and the appropriate remediation approach, as different providers have different removal requirements.
