Re: [libreoffice-website] an black list has an IP address on it that LO uses now

It starts with a date before TDF/LO was even started or needed a web 
site or hosting company.

Yes, it should be dealt with by the company that is leasing the IP 
address to TDF, or so I was told by the tech support people who uses 
that black list.  He cannot figure out why anyone would black list any 
IP address that is used by LO.  He is a LO user.

I think there was some trouble with a holder of several of the 5.x.x.x 
IP address.  It seems to read, from the black list company report, that 
there was problems with the original user of the IP address [s] or maybe 
how fast the leasing company dealt with the problems.

What ever caused that IP address LO uses to be black listed, it should 
be cleared up for a new user to lease it without them being black listed 
for someone else's issues/problems.

How long will it take to do the full process?  Even if it was fixed at 
the black listing company, it would take weeks or months for all the 
different users of that list to update their copy of the list or 
"report".  I had one Hosting account change where it took over 2 weeks 
for my Internet access company to update their DNS/routing system to 
reflect the change in the DNS listing to match my domain name to the 
hosting company's server[s].  Of course, that was over 10 years ago, 
before I switched to one company for both domain name and web hosting.
