When I go into the Akismet configuration in wordpress, it states that it can successfully connect to only 2 out of 4 servers.. It also says to "Please contact your web host or firewall administrator and give them this information about Akismet and firewalls."
The only reason I'm posting this, is because when I have the Akismet plugin enabled, users cannot post comments on my blog. I think this is due to having 2 of the servers blocked.. It says that you must allow TCP connections on post 80.. And if you type "telnet 72.233.69.3 80" in a command prompt on your home computer, it works fine.. I would like to get Akismet fixed as it prevents a ton of spam from hitting my blog..
Code:
Akismet server Network Status
72.233.69.3 Obstructed
72.233.69.2 Obstructed
66.135.58.61 No problems
