Thank you Peter for this opinion. Misc User, these gmail, live, yahoo spams you're talking about are really comming from IP addresses that belong to them ? Because on my side it seems it's not the case.
In my greylist right now I have rosaronald70s...@gmail.com but if I check the IP that originated the spam it's from China Unicom Henan province network. I check a second one and it's also from that ISP. On the other hand if spam is coming from gmail, live, outlook we can blame them for not filtering out these spams and high volume sent mails. With google you cannot send mails to more than 500 people within 24h Le dimanche 4 novembre 2018 à 23:49:47 UTC+1, Misc User <open...@leviathanresearch.net> a écrit : On 11/4/2018 2:25 PM, Mik J wrote: > Hello Peter, > > Thank you for this article. > Do you know why, and particularly Microsoft, use very random IPs to send > mails. > In that way, they make greylisting not as reliable as it should be.

About 80% of it comes from a hijacked gmail, live.com, or outlook.com accounts. The rest from yahoo and gmx.com addresses with a sprinkling of one-off spam domains making up the last percentage points.
