Hello Ilugc,

Problem: Mail server works fine. I am able to send and recieve mails through
this mail server. everything works fine. able to subscribe to ilugc from
x.com , able to send and receive mails from gmail.
But there are certain domains such as hotmail, yahoo, rocketmail, ymail and
also certain companies which reject all the mails sent from the user at
x.com.
For example all mails sent from [email protected] to any hotmail, yahoo,
ymail, rcoketmail and certain company mail ids are rejected.
I analyzed the issue and found out mails originating from dynamic ips, IPs
not listed and approved by the companies that sell spam protection software
such as trend micro are rejected.
...and they are right in doing so, since it makes sense to not trust mail that
claims to originate from a domain whose MX record does not exist or whose
originating IP does not resolve to the claimed domain.
Now, there are few ways to avoid being treated as spam. For example:
a. Get a static IP for your net connection and set up a dns to point to this IP
as being authoritative for your domain (including the MX record).
b. Get a external hosted domain to be the mail server for your domain.
c. Configure an external server (possibly your ISP, ie: BSNL, itself) as a
smarthost (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_host)
d. Use a dynamic dns service for your DSL connection that lets you set up an MX
record too (eg: http://www.dyndns.com/services/dns/dyndns/howto.html)
HTH,
cheers,
