eric
i have 2 additional servers using qmailtoaster all with the same data
center and i could use any of those.
my helo, spf, reverse dns records are all correct
we continuously monitor our servers for outgoing spam -- there has been
cases but we quickly stop those.
my server ip is not listed in any spamdatabase and every server in the
world accepts my email.
i have joined the snds and junk email reporting program
SNDS says - blocked manually or for spamming
while their junk email reporting gives me all green reports
so basically they contradict themselves
their support people give typical answers like trained parrots
on googling i found that there are 100s of others suffering due to their
so called "SmartScreen filter"
so i want to route only emails addressed to hotmail.com thru another server
can you please guide me on this ie what should i enter in smtproutes ?
let us say if i put in the smtproute file
hotmail.com:ip.add.other.server
all the emails to hotmail.com will be routed to the other server
now what should i put in the other server so that it accepts the email and
fowards it to hotmail ?
thanks for all your help.
