This address has been disabled. Negative remaining count.

Postby takeonenow » Wed Jan 07, 2004 12:36 am

I have a disposable email that somehow got into a "This address has been disabled." state.

It has a negative number in the Remaining column.

Is there any way to fix this?

that's wild - I added that feature to be able to turn off some addresses that were being bombed, but that was a long time ago - it shouldn't happen automatically -- could you have typed the negative number in the web form?

Anyway, let me know the "word" of the address (you can post that here or send it to info at sg, I won't need the spamgourmet account or anything) and I can reset it.

It happened when I got a bunch or stream of newsletter emails (when my remaining count was 0). The funny thing is it happens to some disposable emails but not others.

I lowered the "disabled" threshold to -10

That should be enough to resist the race-condition clobbering that it sounds like your addresses took.
