Reverse DNS blacklist problems

Post by stugatza »

I am runnin version 1.52 of ME. If i utilize the reverse dns blacklisting functions i stop most of my email. However, as a side result my mail server times out on dnsreport.com when i run a check. I have also had a complaint from a client telling me his email to me gets bounced as a result of my server (he is not blacklisted, the log indicated that my server took too log).. Even if i just use 1 rdbl i have these issues. Are there any settings i can tweak to remedy this?

one addtl piece of info... i am timing out remote servers at 2500 seconds.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Are you able to provide a bit more detail, so that we can do some DNS tests on our side. Your domain name, diagnostic report, log extracts.

this log is from the remote server trying to mail me. it is also using ME

The mailserver log reads:

Hi,

We have telnetted to your domain and re-simulated your problem. Looking up your domain on DNSreport it indicates that your Mail server is failing on the "RCPT TO:" command, this usually indicates that your DNS or SMTP configuration maybe incorrect, can you please check these settings to see if they are valid. I also reccomend you checking your diagnsotic report as this can indicate DNS failures.

If you problem persists, i suggest you lodge a support request via our Online services Support form: http://www.mailenable.com/support/supportrequest.asp

The following KB article's explain various DNS problems and configuration guide's:

this is the debug log, checked all smtp and dns setting they appear correct. the dns server is the same as the one on my NIC which allows me to resolve names on the web. Also, this problem is only when i use reverse black list.

could you please post the error in it's entirety?

I am guessing that this is a different issue for you, possibly authentication.
