Did you read the page? Here is what it says:

Ref: PBL1554566

190.113.210.0/23 is listed on the Policy Block List (PBL)


Outbound Email Policy of The Spamhaus Project for this IP range:

This IP address range has been identified by Spamhaus as not meeting our policy for IP addresses permitted to deliver unauthenticated 'direct-to-mx' email to PBL users.

Important: If you are using any normal email software (such as Outlook, Entourage, Thunderbird, Apple Mail, etc.) and you are being blocked by this Spamhaus PBL listing when you try to send email, the reason is simply that you need to turn on "SMTP Authentication" in your email program settings.

Once again I will state that the Forum does not use Spamhaus and has no control over their policies. Therefore there is no whitelisting this Forum can do.

I wasn't trying to send an email. I was trying to post a new topic via the forum web page.

If that is the case then why was the message, I quoted, displayed on the forum page when I attempted to post a new topic?

Web search suggests they work with ISPs, so you might check with yours.

Suggest you read your own earlier post:

This IP is infected (or NATting for a computer that is infected) with the kelihos spambot. In other words, it's participating in a botnet.

Until this is fixed there will be problems.
