Sandy,
I have a lot of interest in finding a workaround to the thread issue,
and no doubt this has promise. I'm just saying that I'm reserving
judgment until it is tested. I will probably test it myself later
today since Peter didn't respond yet to your post. If you have some
suggestions for
Andrew,
I will try the MaxDSNSize hack and see if it does anything. I do know
that on vanilla MS SMTP, the limit is not defaulted to 10 MB because my
IMail is set to 25 MB and this was creating a lot of issues back when I
was configured that way. Basically, every 552 bounce was landing in
I just confirmed that this works properly. If the size limit is
exceeded for the DSN, it strips all attachments out and only sends back
the original headers and the top 20 lines of the original message
body. I set the MaxDSNSize to 100 KB, removed the MS SMTP size
limitation, and let IMail
Sweet. Thanks for the testing and follow up on this,
Matt.

Thanks Sandy. Later in the week was pretty soon!
I have installed this and have been testing out the new functionality. One
question I have is about checking for negative results that have a lt and an
ht that are negative. In my early tests it appears that if I set up a few
tests like this:
For whatever reason, one of my mail servers has been blacklisted by Comcast.
It's on no other blacklists that I can find. I have spent much of the day in
a frustrating search for contact info that actually gets you to a human.
So I don't know why they blacklisted my server and I have customers
Maybe start here:

I believe that Comcast uses BrightMail, so you might also want to try to
contact them directly.

Have you determined whether you can just use one of your other C-Class
networks to set up a simply IIS SMTP server as a smart host and then relay
your outbound mail through that IP address?

If you're using a 'nonzero' test definition, don't use '-e'. You want
SPAMC32 to return just 0 (ham) or 1 (spam), depending on the local
thresholds. Using -e with negatives is what got you into trouble in
the first place. :)
It's a good idea. I had thought to change the IP of the server, but then I
have to reconfigure the firewall and go through another episode with the CBL
people. Using an outboard box would solve the problem until Comcast decides
to block the new IP...
It would be nice if I could devise a way
Dave,
You can kinda do this - in Imail there is an option to gateway through
another box on x amount of errors. While its not comcast specific it will
allow all normal mail to be delivered and on error push it to another box to
send.

You actually CAN - but only if you are using IIS for your outbound gateway.
With IIS you can set up routing options for different destination domains.
Configuring per domain IP/port numbers and other output routing options is
something I've always missed in Imail.

I thought about that, but it doesn't look like Imail will see an error. It
seems that Comcast accepts the message then bounces it.

So Are you using ORF to tarpit or MS SMTP and if the latter besides the
2 reg tweaks below do you make any other changes? The threads thing is
ok?
Thanks

You can. Simply add a line to your hosts file on your current mail server
like:
ip.of.gate.waycomcast.com
Then all mail destine for comcast.com will get sent directly to the gateway
server and all other mail will still get delivered as usual.

The answer is in your log files. Comcast inserts a message in the data

Hi Paul-
I responded to that address, but I eventually heard from a human because I
called their IP allocation department and spoke with a friendly person who
gave me a number...
Anyway, they have the same objection to IMail that the CBL folks have. The
server reports its name as mail.
Hi, all-
Running Imail 8.15 here, but this applies to many other versions.
I have recently been blacklisted by CBL and Comcast as a result of a feature

which, for outgoing mail, Imail identifies itself as mail. followed by
