How long does delisting usually take?

Delisting timelines by blocklist:

Spamcop: 24-48 hours automatic expiration if reports stop.

Barracuda: Days to a week for manual review and removal.

Spamhaus (minor listing): Sometimes immediate self-removal available.

Spamhaus (serious listing): Days to weeks, depends on severity and cooperation.

Spamhaus (repeated offender): Can take weeks to months, may require significant evidence.

Factors affecting speed:

Severity of offense

History of previous listings

Quality of removal request

Cooperation and responsiveness

Plan for days to weeks. Do not expect instant removal.

Minor infractions clear quickly. Serious violations require longer probation.
