Thanks for the answer.  I've never heard that one before.

I remember once I used a 3rd party component set (Indy 9) to do some smtp alert emails from a Windows application. Couldn't get the mails to go through for a few particular customers and after some research and talking to ISP's, we found out that the component set that I used was used to write spamming software and the headers produced by the component set were flagged by spamm assasin and others. Arg.



Mail admins usually treat non-MTA software that send email as highly potential sources of spam. In your case, a whitelisting arrangement would take care of the problem or whatever arrangement they may have.

We simply switched component sets to fix the problem. Pity since Indy is a Wonderful suite of components.


Properly managed ISP's/domains will have a reachable contact at [EMAIL PROTECTED]/domain.

The third party component set you mentioned...is it the original of indyproject.org too?

Yeah, Indy 9 from Indy Project. I've since moved over to Synapse because I am doing a lot of work with Lazarus/Freepascal now and Synapse works great with both Delphi and Freepascal.

The Indy 9 component most probably got itself into blacklists because of the IntraWeb framework, which most probably uses Indy 9 for smtp, has inadequate measures against abuse and the Indy 9 component creates an easily identifiable header.

I'm not sure that Intraweb has an included smtp interface, but I am almost certain Indy was used as the underlying technology or at least the basis of. I have a Intraweb license (v. 6/7?) actually, but haven't used it much since I started with ASP.net in .net/mono and C#/Chrome. Personally, I'm excited about Delphi for PHP coming out.


But now I stray off topic...
