Problem with Proofpoint spam list

in General
Hello
One of our IPs is on the Proofpoint spam list, and we have been trying to file a removal request for about a month now, but we have not received a response so far.
Has anyone here had this problem? Do you have any suggestions?
Thank you

Spam lists are overrated.
Leading providers are no longer using them
Therefore, you can ignore the spam lists.

Fake news. Be on Proofpoint and get fucked by iCloud.
iCloud is too expensive.
Use OnePoundEmail instead.
So deliverability to other providers than OnePoundEmail isn’t needed?
That explains why you don’t find spamlists an issue
Due to being listed on this spam list, we are having trouble sending emails.
Exactly. iCloud and several other mail servers use Proofpoint to control spam.
Have everyone sign up at the same email provider.
External customers will receive US mail instead.
Spmhaus just dbl’ed your name. Reguards.
Not to mention like half of corporate America.
Use AWS? It’s so cheap it’s ridiculous.
proofpoint is really fucking stupid,they always disregard all remove request,I have IP is 99 at sendersocre.com and not in any well-known RBLs check from mxtoolbox.com and multirbl.valli.org,but it is in proofpoint block list.
Ha! Literally dealing with this again right now. Gave up a servarica server recently because they couldn’t get it removed so I can’t send email to iCloud. Same reason why I cancelled my serverpoint server and nocix.
Just replied to a ticket to massivegrid where they confirmed they sent in a request and they said:
I replied something along the lines of “I’ve done this identical set up and it’s only when I get a proofpoint blocked IP is when nothing can be done and they never remove the block but if it’s spamhaus or rats then they are removed same day usually”
But read this, look at the top comment some guy might have a knack for getting them removed, might be worth messaging them https://www.reddit.com/r/proofpoint/comments/1dy3o53/help_to_deal_with_proofpoint_block_of_ip/
And massive grids latest reply:
Edit further reply
(I’m not wasting my time setting it all up again I’ve already set it up elsewhere now)
Good points.
So far, it seems that no one has been able to effectively communicate with Proofpoint.
Reach out to them on their X profile. I had the same issue with a client, and they responded and removed the block on the next day after weeks of trying through their delist form.
