i have problem in my server from 2 weeks ago server stop sending mail to yahoo and hotmail but to gmail send good without any problem i make SPF and add it for all domains after that mail worked Good in 1 day after that the problem come again
Basically, my client don't like yahoo as their host for their website, but wants to keep their "Yahoo! Business Mail". How can I do this without doing any "forwarding"?
They will be using Dreamhost to host their website.
I can't seem to access my server. I can get in through a proxy but not with my own IP. I can't log in through SSH to find out what's going on because I'm banned. I manage my own machines at the moment, so no I can't really contact my host.
My story starts with my getting burned by fumiNET (the first *grrr*)...
Burstnet reactivates my server (for an additional payment of course). The server seems fine but I thought that I might do better with a BurstNET reseller (better service). So...
I sign up with a reseller, and since I got my new server I've been plagued with email bounces, rejections, etc. Seems that my server (via the reseller) was supplied with a bunch of banned IPs (in other words, crap IPs). (the second *grrrr*)
I've reported to the providers abuse department, but was told that I have to handle this. (third *grrrr* - or is it just continued from the second?)
I've had it. I'm ready to fold up shop. As it is the sites keep me busy - but then...
- I get screwed by fumiNET (losing a big chunk of money) - the hassle of trying to get my fumiNET server back up (thanks BurstNET) - transferring to the reseller for better service, and finding out that perhaps BurstNET service was better than the reseller's
I'm open if anyone has suggestions. Some that I've come up with myself...
- finding yet another server provider (recommendations welcome) - drinking large quantities of Guinness (worth it regardless) - pulling the plug on the server and getting shared hosting to hold some minimal content - forgetting the whole damn thing and getting a job as a [pick one]: store clerk, street cleaner, used car salesman
I am looking for an expert who can help me configure my dedicated server to ensure my email gets delivered to Yahoo.
I have an autoresponder script hosted on the server. The script was previously hosted with another host and I got excellent deliverability to Yahoo, Gmail, Hotmail and everyone else.
Unfortunately the volume of mail was too large for that host, so now I have a dedicated server. Since I moved to the dedicated server (two weeks ago), my mail does not get delivered to Yahoo. It doesn't even go into the junk mail folder. It just disappears.
I am very strictt about using confirmed optin for my lists, so it's not a blacklist issue. Right from day one on the new server, my mail did not reach Yahoo. So it must be the way my server is set up.
If there is someone who knows how to resolve this, I am willing to pay you to solve the problem for me. Or, if there is anyone who can give me some advice, that would be much appreciated.
business is just getting out of hand. I applied several weeks ago for Whitelist status, and my issues finally went away for a little over a week (though I never received a response to my Postmaster requests). But then today -bam- 100% deferrals for going on 18 hours now, not a single message has gone through. And naturally no two Yahoo servers give me the same error message.
So...
At this point I'm ready to contract out my Outbound mail to Yahoo through a whitelisted 3rd party until I can get this resolved on my end. Would this be reasonable? Is anyone else doing this? I worked with an outsourced SMTP provider in another life for an internal company mailing list with good success.
Can you tell me....Why is yahoo marking my mail as junk?
Can anyone tell me what the likely causes are for yahoo to be marking my emails to clients as junk? We have reverse DNS set up for the server's main IP address, and I'm just not too savvy on the email technicalities of today.
I'll be happy to give you any information you need to help me diagnose the problem. It's getting irritating having to call my clients and tell them to dig the mail out of their junk folder.
i want to download all my mails using outlook express but yahoo says we have to pay for pop3 access and have to upgrade to mailplus for $ 20. is there any other ways to download mails directly to my desktop by outlook what are the configuration settings of outlook express, let me know
i have a issue on my WHM/Cpanel Linux Server. I have hosted few vbulletin and IPB forums. Problem is that, when someone REGISTERS the CONFIRMATION email is sent to JUNK/SPAM in Hotmail and Yahoo email boxes.
I have noted that The Confirmation emails sent from many other servers are NOT MARKED as spam by Yahoo and Hotmail email accounts. But the mails sent from My servers are marked as SPAM by default.
I have pasted the headers below:
Here are headers
Mails sent from this server works fine. Received-SPF: pass (google.com: domain of webmaster@vbulletin.org designates 209.62.16.134 as permitted sender) client-ip=209.62.16.134; Authentication-Results: mx.google.com; spf=pass (google.com: domain of webmaster@vbulletin.org designates 209.62.16.134 as permitted sender) smtp.mail=webmaster@vbulletin.org
Mails sent from this server are sent to SPAM folder by default:
Received-SPF: neutral (google.com: 66.90.101.249 is neither permitted nor denied by domain of zahidon_4u@yahoo.com) client-ip=66.90.101.249; Authentication-Results: mx.google.com; spf=neutral (google.com: 66.90.101.249 is neither permitted nor denied by domain of zahidon_4u@yahoo.com) smtp.mail=zahidon_4u@yahoo.com
One thing i am sure is there is something that needs to be fixed in WHM. Some option but i am not sure of that.
Message is waiting at xxx.xxxxx.xxx for delivery to e.mx.mail.yahoo.com.
Reason: Mail Server for yahoo.com could not accept your email at this time. MailEnable will keep trying to deliver this message and will notify you of any progress.
After a while, then i could telnet to e.mx.mail.yahoo.com port 25. Sometimes it can't.
I'm trying to send mails to yahoo and hotmail from my vps and the result was the mail ended up in Spam folder in yahoo and didn't receive any mails in hotmail. When I check the Full MEssage Header in yahoo, the sender was "Sender: Nobody <nobody@host.mydomain.com>" Do I have to set to a name or something ?
My rDNS and SPF was set up correctly, I think. domainkeys=neutral (no sig)
I have contacted hotmail asking why automated emails such as registration verification are being blocked and they said that my server's IP was on a blacklist for spam. I never spam and I do not think a bot has phished using my server's IP. Anyway, if I were to switch server IPs would that solve the problem?
I am having trouble with all mail from my web server being delivered to the Yahoo! spam folder. After doing some reading, I have set up an SPF record and domain keys on the server, but the messages are still being sent to spam.
Here are the headers from an e-mail I sent to Yahoo! that was marked as spam:
(Note: I've made a few replacements so that my server's identity and my identity are not obvious.) ...
A better title might be "hotmail or yahoo won't accept the emails from sendmail."
I have sendmail version: 8.13.4
I have the only modification I can remember doing is: MASQUERADE_AS(`ipalaces.org')dnl
I can send emails perfectly to gmail accounts. Here is a sucessfull output of an email send to gmail:

This is a test of the body.
I originally thought the reason hotmail or yahoo didn't receive my emails was because I had no reverse DNS for the IP I was sending the emails out with. Therefore I had my VPS provider create one for my IP. It now reflects ipalaces.org with the IP I use to send out emails (64.74.153.24)
Even after the reverse DNS in place, hotmail nor yahoo could recieve my emails. I am now pretty much stump as to why. I have googled and scanned various other solutions and I havent found anything.
Here is a verbose output of using sendmail to an hotmail address of mine:

The main thing that strikes out to me is that hotmail says "Queued mail for delivery" whereas Gmail normally says "OKAY". It seems as hotmail gets the email, and then decides it's no good. I don't know if my IP is blacklisted or I have to change something in my configuration from 127.0.0.1 to my IP, or what I have to do.
We've installed domainkeys, SPF, and taken all measures suggested by Yahoo but customer e-mails continue to be delayed for days at times. And then of course they end up in the recipients junk folder. Worst of all is that Yahoo does not care to take the time to help or inform ISP's. No explanations, just generic tips.
So I was wondering if there is some sort of exim or sendmail script (procmail?) we can create that will do the following:
For every e-mail sent to Yahoo, the mail server sends another one to the recipient with a notice saying something like:
Attempts to deliver this e-mail to you were rejected by Yahoo mail service X number of times [or delayed X hours/days]. If this is unsatisfactory, we suggest you contact Yahoo support for a resolution.
