I guess > we just have to wait if this has any positive impact. Any news? Did you see any impact. We're seeing very similar patterns here and while Yahoo accepts most of our messages these rejections are a bit annoying. It seems like the block seems to be account-specific not so much about IPs in general. Maybe Yahoo started to use user-specific spam preferences during the SMTP dialog? regards, Felix ___ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://chilli.nosignal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mailop

Probably not so helpful but we saw similar issues in the past. I contacted icloudad...@apple.com then but usually we were able to send before they got back to us. For it only affected some recipients even though all messages were sent from the same domain/IP.

Is there any public information about how to query that whitelist? I didn't find any information about the whitelist on your website. (Also I just checked our mail stats and kicked a few abuse reports with fresh "CSA" spam. The kajomi guys still seem to have some "quality" issues.)

Just to put this into perspective: I don't think the Hetzner situation is that dire overall: I just checked the Talos/SenderBase scoring for some Hetzner nets and they were not so bad. For example the top 50 ips from 78.47.0.0/16 (by email volume) there were 34 IPs with "good" reputation and 7 with "bad" reputation. I am sure my customers would not tolerate blocking networks with similar statistics. Personally if I expect sophisticated measures from dc providers (SMTP proxies, even forcibly terminating TLS connections) I also try to do something more sophisticated when it comes to classifying received messages. (E.g. we are building our own internal IP reputation so initially unknown IPs might get a bad rating from the network but these messages still have a chance and over time the IP might get its own reputation so it will be unaffected from the general network storage.) Anyhow I'll stop here as I feel I'm off-topic now :-) regards Felix ___ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://chilli.nosignal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mailop
Re: [mailop] hetzner and the btinternet.com blacklist
Hi guys, thank you very much for all the input. Seems like SMTP proxies/smarthosts + port 25 blocks/connection counting might be good for something. However I really hope that breaking up TLS connections will never get a routine practice. I mean we are fighting this for years now with all these shitty snake-oil "security" appliances – and I'm not keen of seeing this malpractice more widespread. Brandon also mentioned clickbots/fraud farming. So that means a good dc provider should also try to prevent/detect that? Do these activities influence email deliverability as well? Or is that a separate bucket only used to detect ad fraud? What is "state of the art" when it comes to preventing these clickbots etc from a dc provider perspective? regards, Felix ___ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://chilli.nosignal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mailop

Ok, maybe I'm just unlucky but I get quite a bit of spam via their relay servers. If I'm not mistaken also Hetzner's mail admins are reading this list so maybe they can convice their management to do something about the bad reputation. regards, Felix ___ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://chilli.nosignal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mailop

They do that already (as Hetzner customers can see when registering a Hetzner IP in SNDS). AFAIK they also monitor IP blacklists for their IP range. One thing I'm wondering: If deliverability with Hetzner is already bad is there any chance to deliver anything at all from a OVH/DigitalOcean/AWS ip? (just to get a sense of how problematic Hetzner is) Felix ___ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://chilli.nosignal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mailop
