A client of mine has an Exchange server in the company, for sending mails he like to setup smarthost in the Exchange server to relay the outgoing mails from a third party mail relaying service provider.
I keep having certain domains being hijacked and mass emails being sent from them somehow. I've disabled mail within domain control panel for each domain and issue keeps occurring. I've limited # of emails as well to 2-5 per hour but now so many are trying to be sent from my server it is clogging up mail queue and I have to log into server via ssh and run postsuper -d ALL every day or two. It is very frustrating. The only way I can stop it is to disable domain in plesk panel but that is not an option.
What can I do to find the cause of this issue and stop it?
I have a hard problem with my VPS. I have postfix as mail server on plesk 12 under ubuntu 12.
I dont know why the outgoing mails of all my domains in my servers are getting spam in servers like gmail, yahoo, hotmail...
I'm using mxtoolbox to fix errors and warnings and finally fixed all of them, but my mails are still outgoing to spam.
In mxtoolbox actually I have no mail server errors / warning, u can see it with, for example, this one of my domains: [URL] ....
Headers:
This message is an automatic response from Port25's authentication verifier service at verifier.port25.com. The service allows email senders to perform a simple check of various sender authentication mechanisms. It is provided free of charge, in the hope that it is useful to the email community.
I have a plesk 12 panel with outgoing email limit configured to 10 messages by hour.
I have a redirect account (An account named for example A, without mailbox, doing forward to another two internal accounts B and C). I doesn't know if these account are in use for outgoing email, but i think no.
The problem, are, these account are triggering the outgoing limit everyday on some hours. What's going on? Maybe the forwarding action are counting outgoing emails?
I need some method to check account when they trigger the limit to view who messages are trying to send (At least, headers, because i doesn't understand who messages are triggering limit). Also, if the problem are the forwarding, i need a method to not count these messages as outgoing ones, because i understand, if forwarding are triggered by an automated action / internal redirect / received message, these message doesn't are a outgoing one.
im tryying to setup a forum, but i cannot use email verification, every time i try to send a email it gets bounced back with these details, no matter who i try to send to,hoster has changed to several ips wiht same prob?
This is the qmail-send program at mail.removed.

You are receiving this email because your email address was entered as an email test at Pc -Mod.
The first step of this email test script has been completed. However, a formatting test is still necessary:
A paragraph break. A single line break.
Another paragraph break. Another single line break. Another single line break.
If the above lines look correct, you are finished. The email features on your server are setup correctly.
If this email is run together on one line, there is possibly a configuration error with your mail server. Please ensure it is configured correctly.

Is it possible to see what e-mails are blocked/prohibited by Plesk Outgoing mail control? Currently i've set a limit of 20 mails on each mailbox. Yesterday I received an e-mail that there were messages blocked. For me personally it would be good to see what the receivers email adresses are and optionally what the content of the e-mail was. This way I can find out if it was really spam or not.
If the e-mails weren't spam, is there a possibility to release and send them?
Every month or two, we like to send our members a newsletter-type email which just informs them about what's happening over in our website and community. We have over 350,000 accounts registered, so there's quite a few emails to be sent each time.
I'm currently using cPanel with Exim and SwiftMailer to send the members an email through PHP. The way I do it currently is import all the email addresses to a separate table then email 500-1000 at a time. This is controlled by a Cron job.
I'm finding Exim to be extremely slow and the queue has built up to 190,000 as I type this (the email process started last week).
My question is this. What's the best software, whether it be a program or a script of some form, to send an email to such amount of users? Or if anyone knows any way to 'tweak' Exim to handle such mass-emails.
to send 3.6 million emails over a week period of time. it is for a client that wants to send an email about their new account policies. these users are clients from different domains. how can this be done.
They have an exchange server onsite. should they use that server or do you recommend going through a service? if so whom do you recommend that is good?
Do you recommend going with a dedciated server for email? what server specs? the email will not have an attachment just a few lines and a link to their own site. with whatever solution you recommend? please give me price ranges?
Dell and such enterprise companies send emails all the time with that many emails and more to external clients... how do they do it.
I just do not want to get black listed and want to make sure all or most of they clients get it.
I tried to send an email to Hotmail.com and I get error messages. However, I can send an email to another email address that forwards to hotmail and it arrives correctly.
When sending via SquirrelMail I get:

I have correct TXT dns entries. Doesn't matter what email I sent to hotmail, they all get rejected. They don't even appear in the junk box
I will wanted to know if hmailserver lets configure the quantity of outgoing emails it is permitted in an hour or minutes. I have found this:
hMailServer is pre-configured to have high security when it comes to relaying and authentication so that no one can use your server to send spam messages.
But I do not know if It refers to what I want or to an antihack or something like that to protect my server.
I've looked through my exim logs a number of times and I see emails being sent out with "from:" fields with email addresses of other domains. Usually they are spam related and fraudulent.
How can exim be setup to only send out emails that have localdomains in their from fields?
E.g. if I have account bob.com on my server then the owner of bob.com can only send out emails "xxxx@bob.com" no matter what else he tries to do that's all exim will send out.
How can you get exim to do this? I have been using filtering to block commonly spammed domains like aol.com hotmail.com etc - any emails sent out with these in their from fields are filtered and blocked - but rather building up a larger and larger filter of commonly abused domains - why not just block everything except domains on your server.
My VPS is working perfectly for over one year. However the mail server of my VPS is always not working about 3 - 4 times a week since three weeks ago. I can login the webmail accounts, just cannot receive emails and send emails.
