[drdre]

hi all.. i ahve done a fresh install of zimbra and i am using a dynamic IP..

i have followed this : Outgoing SMTP Authentication - Zimbra :: Wiki

and hotmail still gives me :

host mx4.hotmail.com[65.55.37.120] said: 550
DY-001 Mail rejected by Windows Live Hotmail for policy reasons. We
generally do not accept email from dynamic IP's as they are not typically

addresses. If you are not an email/network admin please contact your

any ideas what i have wrong ?

Thats because you are using a dynamic IP and that IP might be in the Spam block list of Spamhaus. If you want to verify your self you can check it from this page

http://www.spamhaus.org/lookup.lasso

It looks like either your relay is listed in the dynamic IP list (highly unlikely), or your server is not properly forwarding it. Can you post the headers of the message attached to that bounce message? This should show the path the message took from your server to the hotmail servers.

From the above I see that you domain is handsofhelpfoundation.org is right ?. If so then your Mx record says your mailserver has the IP 174.120.1.162. When I check that IP in Spamhaus it says that IP is clean. Dynamic IP's are listed under Spamhaus PBL.

Strange why hotmail rejects your message. From one of my Zimbra installations Hotmail accepts the mail but usually puts it in the junk folder of the user.

[ArcaneMagus]

I'm not entirely sure if the method you are trying to setup will leave this in the message but this might be your problem:
Reporting-MTA: dns; handsofhelp.no-ip.org
That seems to show the mail as having come from a dynamic DNS setup, which would have been blocked. Your domain has a valid static IP address though (as shown by priyadarsanroy), why are you not just using that rather then attempting to relay your mail through an external server?

[drdre]

Its for a home server that the company ceo has.... they having issues checking mail via the online mail service at my present host.. so i setup this zimbra box for them..

Is there anyway around this ?
