Listed on S5H? Remove It With One Command
The S5H list, all.s5h.net, collects IPs that send spam to its honeypot addresses. Getting off it is about the fastest removal in the business.
Remove It From the Listed Server
Run one HTTP request from the listed IP itself, for example curl -4 http://www.usenix.org.uk/content/rblremove on that server. S5H delists the IP immediately. On a server with several addresses, make sure the request goes out from the listed one.
If That Doesn't Work
Use S5H's manual removal form with your email, the IP, why it was listed, and what you fixed. Replies can take a few days, and approved removals go through within 30 minutes.
Stay Off It Next Time
If your IP hit S5H's honeypots once, it can again. Generator Labs checks your IPs against S5H and 150+ other data sources and alerts you by email, Slack, SMS, or webhook when a listing reappears. Free for your first host.
