Anyone else on Aussie Broadband static IP space having trouble receiving email from (some) Proofpoint outbound servers?
I am currently unable to receive some important email because SMTP (TCP) connections are apparently timing out between the outbound ProofPoint SMTP relays and my MX host "mx1.imrryr.org" (static IP on Aussie Broadband's network). The sender receives a delay notification (below) and email never gets through. My MX host is reachable from most other networks (servers I can access in Munich and Los Angeles, and routine incoming mail from other sources). But some email, which was getting through as recently as 2024-05-23 May 23 11:41:07 chardros postfix/smtpd[3464880]: connect from mx0b-00198101.pphosted.com[67.231.157.182] May 23 11:41:08 chardros postfix/smtpd[3464880]: Anonymous TLS connection established from mx0b-00198101.pphosted.com[67.231.157.182]: TLSv1.2 with cipher ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384 (256/256 bits) May 23 11:41:10 chardros postfix/smtpd[3464880]: E8B468DF27A: client=mx0b-00198101.pphosted.com[67.231.157.182] is no longer getting through: --_000_20240530053244U5WPZH028066mx0b00198101pphostedcom_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable ********************************************** ** THIS IS A WARNING MESSAGE ONLY ** ** YOU DO NOT NEED TO RESEND YOUR MESSAGE ** ********************************************** ----- Transcript of session follows ----- <...>,<...>...
