Re: [swinog] Swissonline mx problems?
Hi Rog Some of our customers would send e-mails to swissonline.ch answer: mx.hispeed.ch. - 62.2.95.11 [Could not connect: Got an unknown RCPT TO response: 451 4.1.8 Possibly forged hostname for 69.2.200.182] Anyone got same answer? Yes. It seems they are blocking mails with possibly forged hostnames. Is this a method to blocking spam or is it against sobig.f? My business mail server don't has this problem. The mails to hispeed are going out. Probably they are checking DNS records and if the name isn't found the sender will be blocked. Any suggestion?

Hi Roger, It seems that the dns reverse to forward check is failed. nslookup 69.2.200.182 182.200.2.69.in-addr.arpa name = host182.69.2.200.maximumasp.com. nslookup host182.69.2.200.maximumasp.com. ** server can't find host182.69.2.200.maximumasp.com: NXDOMAIN mx.hispeed.ch. - 62.2.95.11 [Could not connect: Got an unknown RCPT TO response: 451 4.1.8 Possibly forged hostname for 69.2.200.182] Cheers Erich -- * Erich Hohermuth IP Engineer - SolNet (AS 9044) PGPKEY-46A08FCB * -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Maillist-Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/swinog%40swinog.ch/

Yes. It seems they are blocking mails with possibly forged hostnames. Is this a method to blocking spam or is it against sobig.f? I know other ways to block spam and sobig. 1. Remove MX entry (like t-systems last friday) 2. Shut down mailserver My business mail server don't has this problem. The mails to hispeed are going out. Probably they are checking DNS records and if the name isn't found the sender will be blocked. yes, one of our customers had a problem because he had a other IP for the outgoing mail then the MX. Fix reverse DNS for 195.134.153.38 or use your ISPs mail server Any suggestion?

In RFC 1912: For every IP address, there SHOULD be a matching PTR record in the in-addr.arpa domain.

Re: [swinog] Swissonline mx problems?
that's the part I like most: Failure to have matching PTR and A records can cause loss of Internet services similar to not being registered in the DNS at all.
