Re: Alternative SMTP server
Bonjour Philippe, You're going to have a bad time with residential IPs. Free/Illiad usually hands out fixed IPv4 addresses; if you aren't getting them from Free, I doubt your next ISP will be any better. See https://www.free.fr/assistance/54.html (zones dégroupées, etc.) . I'm even surprised that Free allows you to use outbound tcp/25. For instance, my ISP (Orange) just sinkholes it. My current setup is to use a cheap dedicated server at OVH (Kimsufi) that has no such restrictions, and a fixed IP address. My entire mailing setup is there, but you could probably just use a dedicated machine or a VPS as a glorified proxy (see also Yuval's reply). >> Another thing you could try: your domain is currently registered with >> OVH.

My wish was to have my private mail server to receive and send emails without using external SMTP server (Google, provider,...). But with these 2 problems I think I just have 2 choices: - go to another provider gives possibility to manage rDNS (only 1 french provider gives this, and I hope gives IP from static pool and not dynamic) I know no provider who changes dynamic reverse record for you. providers should allow you to change static DNS record tho. So, just check providers if they can provide you with a sytatic IP and change rDNS. OR - use my provider SMTP relay to send emails instead of my own SMTP relay (but what about the dynamic IP pool issue?) if you use providers' mailserver, dynamic DNS should not be an issue. Many providers block SMTP towards dynamic IPS (and even from them). -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, uh...@fantomas.sk ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.

I am not sure about relaying in the event of rejection, someone else can maybe advise. Alternatively, and assuming your volumes are low, you could just relay all your outgoing mails through [Sendgrid or another]. ATT1.HTML Description: Binary data

Alternative SMTP server
Hello all. Sorry for my english I'm french. I have a private mail server (at home) with my domain name. I have about 5% of my emails rejected by some SMTP servers for the following reasons: - rDNS is KO (my french provider don't give us possibility to create or modify our rDNS) Or - mail server IP comes from a dynamic pool IP (but my IP is static) So, my idea is to use automatically (managed by Postfix) an alternative SMTP server (Gmail SMTP with my Google account) when an email is rejected. But I don't know if it's possible and how to configure that. -- Cordialement, Philippe - Forums
