*rotfl* Gmail claiming localhost as a permitted sender; your editing has given a ...

It's not a knob tuned incorrectly in Exim, it's "how you are perceived by others". I wrote this a little while back: http://bridge.grumpy-troll.org/2010/04/email-cooperation.html which explains how email is about people cooperating to get messages delivered. When delivering to large providers, it's largely about "what reputation do I appear to have?". One page I link to in the above article is: http://research.google.com/pubs/author70.html which gets you to “Sender Reputation in a Large Webmail Service”, presented at CEAS 2006 by one of the architects of Gmail's spam filtering system. I suggest that you set up DKIM, so that mails sent by you can be provably tracked back to your domain, not just to the IP addresses you're using, so that over time you can establish an independent reputation. That way, if you're not spamming, your mail will gradually become less likely to be filtered as spam, even if the other users of IP address space near you are not as trustworthy. -Phil -- ## List details at http://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
