I'm testing out sending news subscription letters to yahoo and hotmail accounts, they ended up in their Junk and Spam folder.
When I check the Full Message Headers in Yahoo. I saw that the"
Return-Path: <nobody@host.mydomain.com>" and "Received: from nobody by host.mydomain.com with local"
Is it could be the "nobody" that mails are end up in Spam and Junk?
everything is ok , i contacted Hotmail to be part of SenderId program ,and told me 2 days and sending will be ok , i waited for 10 days , till now every new member can't recive ctivation email , what shall i do ??????
My server not open relays ... Not in blacklist ....
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
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?
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.
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:

I have a dedicate server and got a problem with receiving and sending email with Yahoo email accounts. I checked with gmail and other one and it works fine except Yahoo. It does not delivery when I sent out to Yahoo accounts. However, I can get email from Yahoo when they send back to me but a little bit delay.
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 a server and i have access to the root etc... so i notice a few days ago that my server dose not send any email to hotmail etc.. so i have posted a thread and i get answer
Quote:
set reverse DNS for your IP address and if possible an SPF record for your domain.
i have no idea where to set my dns this is what i do not undestand..
so i ask how And the answer was
Quote:
Contact your provider and ask him to set a reverse DNS entry for your IPs. Only he can do it, you can't do it yourself.
And the answer was to contact the Server Provider
Quote:
No. reverse dns is done as a provider level. It has to be done within there servers that handles the requests for RDNS. Sometimes depending on your provider, they allow this in the billing center. Other times you flat out need to make a request.
And Here is anther answer telling me i still need to contact the provider..
So i did i submit a ticket and wait 5-6 day for them to respond to my ticket and this is what my Server provider have reply to me...

A: Hi, Creating DNS record for our client is beyond the scope of our support. You can edit your dns entry for a domain to add the txt dns record and insert in the text field the spf header as describe in your link. This is a good link to use to learn how to create SPF record. You should have a reverse dns lookup for your mail server. This mean that your IP will return the domain of your mail server. This is important to not being tag a spam by many anti-spam solution. Thank you,
so know i have no idea what to do .. all iam asking sinise iam root and i have full server access where do i need to make change to get the send email work?
I migrated a client from a Windows server to Linux and everything is fine except that mail sent to this client (say, example1.com) from a particular domain (say, example2.com) simply disappears and does not reach at all. Mail sent to that other domain (example2.com) from my new client (example1.com) is delivered correctly.
Incidentally, that other domain (example2.com) from which the mail is sent is with the hosting provider who was earlier providing services for my newly acquired client. Should I suspect anything? Or, is there a way to figure out what's happening?
I have MailScanner running on my VPS, but it isn't configured to filter at RBL level, only at Exim level, so I don't think this is the issue.
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.

i have a very strange problem with hotmail service i can't send any email from my domains to any hotmail account and i can't send any email from hotmail account to any domain use my IP
when i send email using my mail server i got this reply

i contact hotmail and they only reply my with AUTOMATIC EMAIL Asking my if i can update my MSN SOFTWARE
For several months the Yahoo bot had been controlled to one visit per 40 seconds with a robots.txt page. Today it is not working and creating several page impressions per minute.
Has anyone seen any new advice on how to control this pesky creature?
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.
