I haven't had this trouble (not that I've attempted to email those domains much...) There are other reasons they could be marking your email as spam. Perhaps the system sending your outgoing email doesn't have reverse IP? Something strange in the headers? When the email stored in the spam folder, do they add any headers to the message to indicate why? Regarding sending out a large number of challenges, here are few things you can do: 1) Run a virus/etc checker before TMDA and drop/hold all such nasty email. I find a good incoming filter that's pretty much equivalent to this is: body 'name\=\s*"?[^\r\n"]*(\.pif|\.scr|\.exe|\.bat|\.com|\.vbs|\.js|\.zip|\.rar)' hold (put this all on a single line in your filter) 2) Implement gray-listing on your server. I find this gives me a *huge* reduction in SPAM. Google for the term. 3) Probably others... > I LOVE TMDA, but having mail not get delivered is a huge huge pain. > Any help would be greatly appreciated. Hope this helps!
