Spam Blocked?

The USAL Diplomacy Judge has recently had to implement more aggressive spam control measures. The downside of a more aggressive policy is the risk of false positive messages. If you received a bounce message directing you here, then please follow the instructions below.

Please note that email to the judge is limited to 15000 bytes. The usual reason for exceeding that is sending html which the judge cannot interpret anyway. For help setting your email client to send plain text messages, please see Configuring Mail Clients to Send Plain ASCII Text.

How to get added to the "whitelist"

Send a plain text email to errors@dip.game-host.org

The Subject of the email should be "unblock me". The first line of the email body should be your return address. The second line of the email body should be the email address you're trying to reach.

There should be no extra linefeeds or anything else in the email or it will be delayed and may be returned to you. It should not be HTML or "multipart/alternative".

We'll contact you if necessary and unblock you if possible. If we can't unblock you (for example, if you ARE a spammer), we'll write you back and let you know why.

Note that this procedure is only needed if your email is getting bounced as spam. If the judgekeeper has blacklisted you, then you need to write to him directly.
