Removal of Level 3 Records

Something you need to know about UCEPROTECT-Level 3:

Your provider has no interest to stop spammers, or seems to believe that spam is, what the Internet was made for. Their IP's belong to the worst SPAMMERHEAVENS on the net.

There are about 105000 providers worldwide, but only several hundrets manage to end up in UCEPROTECT-Level 3.
We monitor the performance of our blacklist for quality reasons and we are publishing the statistics measured at several national authorities in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
Our statistics of UCEPROTECT-Level 3 clearly can be interpreted this way, that those black sheeps which managed to end up in Level 3 are responsible for 50 to 75% of the global spam, while almost no real mail came from their ranges.

That is (at least in our opinion) a very good reason to firewall them on sight.

You now have knowledge that it is not you, but it is your complete provider that got listed at UCEPROTECT-Level 3, anyway you are also not innocent, because you support spammers by giving your money to such a sewer.

Your provider will be automatically removed from Level 3, as soon as they are no longer matching Listing criterias of Level 3.

We know that it's hard to list complete ASN's, but we expect that providers or carriers become active long before they end in UCEPROTCET-Level 3.

Respectable and professional providers usually have a SPAMSCORE of less than 10

If you never sent spam, never maintained an open proxy or open relay, but the provider hosting your email server is listed as LEVEL 3, we suggest you send a strong compliant about it to your service provider, and request them to get active against abusers before listings are escalated to Level 3.
(Think about it: You pay for access / use to the Internet without problems!)

Removal requests from end customers at LEVEL 3 are futile.

Only your service provider can change your situation.

For quality reasons, however, individual clean IPs that are registered at ips.whitelisted.org are generally excluded from level 3

You are a service provider or carrier and you got listed as Level 3?

DO NOT EXPECT TO GET A FREE RIDE HERE! REMOVAL POLICY IS ALSO VALID FOR YOU!

Listings are done by us, Bavarian municipals and district authorities, and others who use our professional UCEPROTECT products.

Find out, which UCEPROTECT-Servers listed your IP addresses and for what reason:

Checkout which IP addresses listed at Level 1 are causing you to be listed at Level 3.
Just grep the logs (last 7 days) on those Level 1 listed servers for undeliverable outgoing mails at the time displayed. Since our rejection texts are very unique it shouldn't be a big deal to figure out who or what caused the problem and you should be able to take preventative measures not to get listed again in the future.

We expect that you have implemented our 4 Steps against email abuse, which you will find at Help for ISPs, before contacting us.

Until you implement those 4 Steps, we can only offer to remove you (and all IP addresses within that range from Level 1) on a payment basis. The fee for this is (which is a real discount, compared to end-user which have to pay per IP).
However, you should understand that you may become re-listed if new abuse becomes known, and number of your abusers grows over the trashcount.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS AN OPTIONAL OFFER ONLY.
YOU ARE LOSING YOUR RIGHT TO EXPRESSDELIST YOUR ASN IF YOU ARE STUPID AND CLAIMING THIS WOULD BE BLACKMAIL, EXTORTION, SCAM OR SIMILAR BULLSHIT.

IF YOU MANAGED TO EXCEED LISTING BORDER BY A FACTOR 10 OR ABOVE EXPRESSDELISTING IS NO LONGER OFFERED TO YOU.
YOUR RIGHT TO EXPRESSDELIST YOUR ASN WILL BE ALSO REVOKED IF YOUR ASN IS RANKED WITHIN THE TOP 5 OF THE WORST SPAMMER HOSTERS OR IF WE HAVE REASONS TO BELIEVE THAT YOU COLLABORATE WITH SPAMMERS.

Due to recent events we want to warn you to make a fool of yourself:

Threatening us with legal action is just ridiculous and will have the consequence that your message will be published by us as Cart00ney.
Expect that to cause additional damage to your reputation, so think twice before playing the Cart00ney card.
