I am unable to receive email after regrouping from an SMTP hijacking. I can send email and if someone replies I get it, but otherwise, no incoming email. What should I check?Thanks,Vic

First and foremost, verify your public DNS for your MX records. It is a bit curious that people can reply to you, though. Yet, they cannotoriginate a message to you. Can you send me a teste-mail and I will look at the SMTP headers and test it back to you? jim (at) cta.net JimJim McBee - Blog - http://mostlyexchange.blogspot.com

Just sent it.

Aha! It looks like you have gotten on to an RBL. Visit the above URL and see how you can get your IP address removed from the list. Jim McBee - Blog - http://mostlyexchange.blogspot.com

Will that keep me from receiving emails?

it's possible if other people are using the same RBL for outgoing filtering. I agree with Jim, what do your MX records point to?Mark Morowczynski|MCT| MCSE 2003:Messaging, Security|MCITP:ES, SA,EA|MCTS:Windows Mobile Admin|Security+|http://almostdailytech.com

I checked the DNS in system manager and it indicated that the domain is valid. I tried to send a test email from my comcast account and received the following:Reporting-MTA: dns; QMTA10.emeryville.ca.mail.comcast.net [76.96.30.17]Received-From-MTA: dns; OMTA11.emeryville.ca.mail.comcast.net [76.96.30.36]Arrival-Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2009 22:26:34 +0000 Final-recipient: rfc822; vcypher@evtekpro.comAction: delayedStatus: 4.1.1Last-attempt-Date: Tue, 01 Sep 2009 08:08:31 +0000Any thoughts?Thanks,Vic

I just spoke with my provider and they indicated that they were not receiving an answer on port 25. How can I correct this?Thanks,Vic
