Last week we started to have problems receiving emails from AOL customers. They would get the following back.
---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Mail Delivery Subsystem <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Date: Sun, 21 Dec 2008 21:50:32 -0500 (EST) Subject: Returned mail: see transcript for details *** ATTENTION *** Your e-mail is being returned to you because there was a problem with its delivery. The address which was undeliverable is listed in the section labeled: "----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors -----". The reason your mail is being returned to you is listed in the section labeled: "----- Transcript of Session Follows -----". The line beginning with "<<<" describes the specific reason your e-mail could not be delivered. The next line contains a second error message which is a general translation for other e-mail servers. Please direct further questions regarding this message to the e-mail administrator or Postmaster at that destination. --AOL Postmaster ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- <[email protected]> ----- Transcript of session follows ----- 451 4.4.1 reply: read error from mx01.pd360.com. <[email protected]>... Deferred: Connection timed out with mx01.pd360.com. Message could not be delivered for 3 hours Message will be deleted from queue Final-Recipient: RFC822; [email protected] Action: failed Status: 4.4.7 Last-Attempt-Date: Sun, 21 Dec 2008 21:50:32 -0500 (EST) I added the sender to the whitelist. That did not work. Called AOL. Not fun. They gave me their outbound server list. I added them to the tcp.smtp file with the relayclient="" option and now I get emails again from AOL. There needs to be a better way to fix this as now I am an openrelay for AOL email servers. Anyone else having problems receiving emails from AOL? Joshua R.
