Hi

I ran a trace on hush.ai.
Results: hush.ai = hush.com = 65.39.178.14

This IP address is not in the SpamCop, ORDB or spambag blacklists.
(These are the main ones I use).

So I ran a check on all the blacklists.

Bingo!

65.39.178.14 is in the Blars Block List.
<http://www.blars.org/errors/block.html>

Blars tends to be a bit indiscriminate.
Quote:
'In general, an entire netblock is added rather than just a single IP or
customer of a larger ISP. (For example, if hugeisp has a /16 that they
allocate a single /24 to spamcustomer, the /16 will be listed rather
than just the /24.) An entire ISP may be added if they show a pattern of
rejecting valid spam complaints for invalid reasons'.

You could try asking Hushmail to get taken off the Blars List.

Best wishes, BillK
