I'll soon be sending out a mail to around 20000 mail-addresses, all members of my site that entered their email address upon registration.
I'm using vBulletin to send them out but now here are my questions;
1) What is the maximum amount of emails i can send out per hour to hotmail, gmail, etc. so I don't get blacklisted or the emails don't get rejected?
2) Which plugin should I use for this?
I have a dedicated server in which i host 4 web sites using plesk one of them is mysite.com. That one is also set for ns1.mysite.com ns2.mysite.com.
(all domain names below are just example names)
Dns records for my apple.com orange.com and banana.com uses ns1.mysite.com and ns2.mysite.com my name server is also in the same machine.
In mysite2.com dns settings are as follows.
Code:
80.111.11.11 / 24PTRorange.com
orange.com.NSns1.mysite.com.
orange.com.NSns2.mysite.com.
orange.com.A80.111.11.11
orange.com.MX (10)mail.mysite.com.
orange.com.TXTv=spf1 a mx include:gmail.com,yahoo.com,hotmail.com ~all
ftp.orange.com.CNAMEorange.com.
mail.orange.com.A80.111.11.11
webmail.orange.com.A80.111.11.11
www.orange.com.CNAMEorange.com.
80.111.11.11 is dedicated ip for orange.com.
The PROBLEM:
The thing is whenever the server sends email it is flagged spam by yahoo, hotmail etc. I have created SPF for my orange.com but it is still marked as spam...
I have checked dns report for both mysite.com and orange.com but they seem to be OK with no warnings either.
I want to create a spf record or make somthing so the emails does not marked as spam.
I have problems sending emails from my VPS to Hotmail and Gmail email accounts. This is a new VPS with some new websites so they are not blacklisted for spam or anything like that.
After users register at my website they receive a welcome email, but with Hotmail/Gmail accounts they end up by default in the spam/junkfolder.
I also have a refer-a-friend and a forgot password form -> with gmail users they both end up in the spamfolder, with hotmail users they both do not show up at all!
I read somewhere that editing the DNS zone could solve this problem with adding a SPF record (see also [url]).
I have added the most common SPF record "v=spf1 a ~all" as TXT record type but after a few days nothing has changed.
so all email send from the VPS to Hotmail/Gmail email accounts will directly be send into the inbox.
I have different adresses configured with several domains on the same server. All the emails send to gmail/hotmail adresses are marked spam.
Looking in the headers everything seems fine, including SPF:

i recently changed host and after i changed host, i am unable to send emails to hotmail from my mail server. Gmail and yahoo are fine.
The error message from Hotmail:
SMTP error from remote mail server after MAIL FROM:<webmaster@joinmo.com> SIZE=3494:

I also ran a dnsreport and heres the result

I have contacted microsoft but really not sure when they will give me a reply .. meanwhile, if there is any solution to my problem, it would be greatly appreciated.
Is this pretty much the default action or do I need to take some steps to get the IP/domain for our mailserver whitelisted?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have 1 site on a dedicated server, this site can send mails to any server in the world, except to hotmail... I dont know why, each time we try to send a mail using a PHP Script (using nobody as user, as you can see in the code below) the server rejects the email sent to hotmail, this is the error:

I checked and the server IP is not listed at any SPAM list, also domain has an SPF record that is configured like this:
Code:
domain.com. 14400 IN MX 10 mail.domain.com.
mail 14400 IN A 89.XX.XX.XX
www 14400 IN A 89.XX.XX.XX
ftp 14400 IN A 89.XX.XX.XX
server 14400 IN A 89.XX.XX.XX
domain.com. IN TXT "v=spf1 ip4:89.XX.XX.XX a mx a:mail.domain.com ~all"
Is the SPF record well configured?, and the MX record, i think its OK... never had issues with this kind of config on normal sites..
Just in case it helps, at /etc/localdomains i have 2 sites, the server hostname and the site domain.com.
Im using RHES 4 + cPanel 11.
i find gmail has a advantage,
when i use outlook to receive mails from it,
my mails are still on the server,
for general,when we use pop3 to receive the mails,
all the mails will be killed from server,
how can i save the mails on the server like gmail does?
Email on server working fine, I can send mails from webmaster@xxx.com to any email only forums like VB don't send emails to hotmail & yahoo ! but emails from forums arrive to emails like webmaster@xxx.com
View 1 Replies View RelatedGmail users are fine.
Two days ago, Yahoo and hotmail users were receiving emails in the Junk folder. I thought this was due to the Reverse DNS settings not being set. So, I contacted Rus from cheapVPS and asked him to enable the Reverse DNS setting after I entered it in the Hyper VM panel, and he kindly did it.
Unfortunately, since the Reverse DNS setting was entered, Yahoo and Hotmail users stopped receiving mails from my site. Gmail users never faced any problem.
the logs (from maillog) are as follows:

Is there a limit to assigning maximum IPs on a server.

What are the maximum number of entries that can go in hosts.deny? Will the server bog down the more entries that are in there? How many is a safe, reasonable number?

this is my experience with Maximum-Hosting.org.
I went there for the low prices to startup my Shoutcast station. At $3 a month, it sounded too good to be true. I got my service, and the owner, seemed like a nice guy. He was very helpful, and was eager to help me get started. This was back in March. The first half of my stent there was great, however, in the last half, downtimes and even a data loss was getting on my nerves. I saw some really personal issues and arguments in the IRC server about the owner and staff, and even some back talk and really personal stuff that I wish I never had heard.
Because of the downtime, the owner did provide me with some free service and features. In these times, I was itching to leave, but the owner lured me back in with something better.
In this time, the service was 'okay', no real big complaints, I was even promoted to an IRCop, on the server.
Four things happened.
1) There was an incident in the chatroom with a regular joke we have done may times was taken really the wrong way. (I did not use my IRCop powers when this happened)
2) After a long outage (last night from 'this' post date), I was the only human on the irc server. In order for me to ask the owner what happened, I silenced a eggdrop bot by banning it from the main room. This was so I can get a new message notification when a real person enters the room. The bot posted every 2min, and it was at 2am in the morning.
3) I actually found a pretty big security hole in the control panel, the owner thanked me yesterday, and was furious the next.
4) because of the top three things, the owner basically got extremely mad and took away my IRCops.
Those 4 things basically were the last pieces of trash I could take. Yes, I forgot to unban the bot I mentioned in #2, but is that a good reason to get me out? Tonight, after a somewhat heated discussion with the owner, my account was instantly closed, all http/ftp pipes closed. I am very lucky I saw the owner start to fall into this cycle he seems to do, I had a full backup of the space I had.
In a nut shell, I would highly advise people NOT to use Maximum-Hosting. If you want low prices, frequent downtime, and the possibility your data could be gone in an instant, this is the host for you!
I can only hope no one else falls into the nightmare I have had to put up with for cheap hosting.
what happens to the emails sent in excess of "The maximum each domain can send out per hour" limit that you can set in root WHM?
Are they discarded or get queued up in Exim?
Can I configure a maximum size for this file?
I have had to wipe it out a few times because it's been getting larger than 4GB
I am a customer of Yahoo Small Business unlimited hosting. I am running Joomla (CMS) with jreviews which uses PHP and MySQL. I now need to expand my review and rating website to earn some profits. According to my business plan, I would need atleast a 1000-2000 unique visitors a day to actually earn off the website to afford a VPS. My question is, can Yahoo Small Business "Unlimited" hosting plan sustain that number under the usage of Joomla? I have been trying to find an answer to this for a long long time but to no avail. I know that "unlimited" is actually a marketing tactic and that one must move to VPS or Dedicated servers for serious traffic. But I cannot move to a VPS before I earn something from the website initially due to lack of funds. Can I expect to be tension free till the range of 1000-2000 uniques/day?
