set reverse DNS for your IP address and if possible an SPF record for your domain.

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:
This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.
A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:
%%%%%%%@%%%%%.com SMTP error from remote mail server after MAIL FROM:<%%%%%%%@%%%%%.com> SIZE=1813: host mx3.hotmail.com [65.54.244.200]: 550 SC-001 Mail rejected by Windows Live Hotmail for policy reasons.

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 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.
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.
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
I'm having difficulty sending an email to another email address (with a different domain) which is on the same VPS.The trouble is, on the other domain's VPS control panel, within the DNS settings, the MX records have been pointed externally (to an exchange server). Their email is turned off. But bizarrely, their mailbox is full.
It seems as though Plesk is ignoring the MX records, and sending MY email internally to the OTHER domain's mailbox on the same VPS.How do I get Plesk to send my mail to the correct EXTERNAL MX records?
I just got a vps and I realised that all email sent to hotmail automatically goes into the spam box (until i approve an email address as being "safe").
I believe that hotmail's senderid and a spf record is the way to go
I have already submitted the senderid form saying i dont have an spf record for the "domains to be added to the senderid program", i listed a couple of my domains.
1) do i still need an spf record?
2) in the future, will i need to tell customers to use outgoing mailservers under one of the domains i submitted (in the senderid form)?
I have a VPS and I am wondering if anyone knows any way in which to make it so that emails sent from the server are not seen as spam by hotmail and the likes.
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.
am going to rent a VPS solution but after some testing most of the providers emails get into my hotmail junk folder (new account, no filters), can somebody recommend one without this problem?
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.
One of my hosted domains have an email problem, every email account that is hosted on that site, is able to send and recieve email, but when sending to gmail or hotmail, it is delivered as SPAM.
Someone told me it is because this domain doesnt have a MX record at the DNS zone..
What is the sintax for the MX record ? I have enterd A(ddress) and CNAME records, but never MX records.. can anyone tell me how to do it so I can send mail in the way it should be.
Receiving works fine, but unable to send email from the server Here are the error messages exim_mainlog dovecot_login authenticator failed for localhost [127.0.0.1]: 435 Unable to authenticate
--------------------
error message in horde There was an error sending your message: authentication failure [SMTP: Invalid response code received from server (code: 435, response: Unable to authenticate at present)]
We are running an application on IIS that sends out 4-500 emails per day via a smarthost, but nearly 11,000 every weekend. None of this is bulk mail...
We need a new smarthost provider ASAP, as our current host is discontinuing this service this week, and we were just notified.
I currently have a vps, just name it myvps.com (not subname.myvps.com).
I wanna send email to somename@myvps.com from php
php with sendmail function always try to send to user 'someone' on this vps that doesn't exist, junk the root user mail with mailer-daemon explaining that no such 'someone' user. I want to route it to another server.
I can not send email from my server ,it shows the below error :
"There was an error sending your message: authentication failure [SMTP: Invalid response code received from server (code: 435, response: Unable to authenticate at present)]"
I think someone has successfully make my server to send out emails. Why i know this?
it's because I saw many return emails saying that the emails sent out to their inbox are consider spam. I mean a lot for instance within 1 second, there are more than 10 mails.
Can someone help explains me how I can find the culprit and fix the problem?
