i implemented something that when our smart host would become blacklisted. It will automatic switch to next available smart host (which is ready sitting). that mean it will start relaying message through another smart host automatically.
Why not find out why you get blacklisted instead of trying to bypass it? You seem to imply that it is something that will happen and often...
It happens. It's certainly happened to me. When you're a hosting co (like the host I use), and have tens or hundreds of thousands of clients with many domains, and some are businesses or organizations that legitimately send out mass emailings, you're trying to catch the idiot whose machine got infected, it was uploaded to their hosted site, and voila, spam going out of your domain. *AND* the blacklisters *insist* on blocking the *entire* address range assigned to the hosting co, rather than the source IP.
