a few months ago we have started a new dedicated box on layeredtech,and set it up like we did all our other boxes,including the reverse dns etc. but no client on a domain on that server can send e-mails to hotmail. we get a reply like :
retry time not reached for any host after a long failure period
this only happens when we send mails to hotmail. has anyone had a problem like that? if yes,could you solve it? how?
I have a big problem with Hotmail and exim conf
My Customers sent many wrong emails to Hotmail and That's made my server as spam source and blocked by Hotmail
is there any conf at exim to check if email exist before sending
Since I moved to vps emails are some how being blocked by hotmail.
I have a forum which needs email activation but those registering with hotmail do not receive emails
My IP in clean from any blacklist/RBL databases but hotmail is blocking with the error message below:-
Remote host said: 550 Your e-mail was rejected for policy reasons on this gateway.
Reasons for rejection may be related to content such as obscene language, graphics, or spam-like characteristics (or) other reputation problems.

We have set-up SPF record, reserve DNS and the IP’s is not spam listed. Anyone have any idea of what we are missing.
To awoid thise problems we have look a bit at senderscorecertified.com, but do any of you know if it is worth the money?
my clients complains that they cannot send/recieve emails to and from hotmail where my server logs shows that it's sent.

Nowadays it's everyone's headache for sending mails to hotmail and yahoo i guess. I am having the same problem.
I add the domainkey to domains, but when i send mail to yahoo it drops to spam.
I didn't tried it with hotmail, but reason for dropping spam at yahoo is probably because of no spf record.
I am having a bit trouble with setting spf. I read some documents and my mind is messed up, i can't figure out what to do.
My server's ip address is : xx.xx.xx.xx
My server's hostname is : server.x.com
and i have domains like , y.com, z.com, f.com bla bla that wants to send mail to hotmail.
Those sites are using different ips, but each ip is using more than 1 site,
I read that i need to setup reverse dns, but one article says i should do it for my hostname, other one says for mail server : mail.x.com.
So first question how should i setup reverse dns?
Second question, it says i need to add spf record for my domain, does it mean my hostname, or the domain i want to send mail ?
v=spf1 a mx ptr ~all
and than i should fill form at https://support.msn.com/eform.aspx?p...rid&ct=eformts
and than wait.
So i will be glad if someone can answer my questions and tell me if there is any missing parts.
i have a problem that the sites on my vps cant send mail to Hotmail but it sending mail to gmail easly..

Problem: client claims emails to *only to* hotmail are delayed/queued for days.

Is this somewhat in my control or not?
I have max outgoing mails per hour set to 100 and mail queue run at 60 minute intervals.
I have a vps with a site has phpbb2.
Before one month I migrated to another vps host.
In the old vps, the sending notfications such as reply new topic ( watch ), e-mail activations to new members notifications of the private messages were working very fine and each memeber which has valid e-mail will receiev these notifications from my forum.
The old vps using sendmail.
But the new one using qmail and it is will configured and the e-mail notifications are recieved which means that it is working except the ones who use hotmail accounts begin not recieve anything, the others e-mails are recieved well.
The files are the same, excpet the old uses sendmail, the new vps uses qmail.
After many days of searching how to solve this I decided to contact the support team.
They replied to me that they should do to overcome hotmail receive email problem, reverse PTR record needs to be added and to add SPF records under my domain's DNS zone.
They did and they told me to wait 24 hours, I waited for 4 days and it did not work.
I went back to them and again they look closely to my qmail configurations and it is fine and working and also they made an hotmail account to test and send e-mail form my mail server and it had been accepted which means that my domain and my new IP is not blocked by hotmail.
So their is nothing wrong excpet that email notifications from my phpbb it still won't go to members who have hotmail.
Very strange if the hotmail hates php mail scripts like phpbb why before in the old vps was like, and now suddenly hates.
I have a VPS with rDNS and SPF records configured fine. I am able to send email to all. But for hotmail I can not.
The strange is that on VPS log I have message that the trasation was competed:

But the message was not delivered in any teste.noreply@hotmail.com folder (inbox or spam folder).
I can not understand it. What can to be happening?
Hotmail not receiving any emails from my server nevertheless log files is ok no problem and messages sent every thing is ok recently i contacted with my server's provider to make a ptr record at dns to fix hotmail problem and i shoked when i notice that they put a wronge ip
My Q: is that ptr record is important and it could be the reason for making hotmail rejecting my emails
if there is much i can do to get the mail that gets sent from my server to show up in the inbox of users using a free mail service.

It appears that MSN / Hotmail have recently began blocking an awful lot of servers I manage. Several of them (for a company I work for) are in a few blacklists however a number of the IP addresses I manage are 100% clean.
Anyone know of something MSN/Hotmail recently began enforcing?
The blocks began at around 6 PM EST on Thursday of last week.
The error message is as follows:

I feel like a pawn for asking this on WHT but from what I can see
it's fairly widespread.
The domains in question do have basic SPF implemented as well.
not limited to a contact at hotmail / msn that would enjoy a phonebeating.
One of my VPS clients has had all of the ip addresses on his server blocked/blacklisted on the hotmail service, he cannot send email to or recieve email from anyone with a hotmail email address, does anyone have any ideas on a solution, other than changing all the ip's on his vps?

I have the same problem as many other users who try to send to Hotmail.... my e-mails are being put into the junk filter.
Could you please help me with this as I am going mad trying to figure out how to fix this? I am running a VPS which has 4 IP's and whenever I send an e-mail from the domain it moves into the junk filter. E-mails are received correctly by other e-mail providers (Yahoo, etc.), only Hotmail has the issue.
When I do a DNS Report, the only error I get besides the mail server having a single point of failure, is "Mail server host name in greeting". I have had the VPS provider add a RDNS entry, etc.
I have spoken with the support team at the VPS Host and they have tried everything they could and can't understand why there is an issue. I also contacted Hotmail and they redirected me to a Junk Filter troubleshooting page [url]
I don't know why this is being filtered as Junk and what I can do to fix it. Could you please help as I would be most grateful.
Is someone able to PM me with help as I would prefer not to post the network/website details on the forum please?
