Interestingly enough, it was rejected because I have @mydomain.com in my blacklist_senders file. This is to prevent spamd where the sender address is spoofed with my domain. It works because all email for my domain is sent with authentication (a good practice), and authenticated users circumvent all spamdyke rules. Well, let's imagine, that you will send mail to thyself (or even more important, to the OTHER domain at your hosting), not through YOUR server, but through authenticated SMTP e.g. gmail.com, or through SMTP of his local internet provider (you know, cable providers blocks external SMTP servers access very freguently, and it is very reasonably, 'course). Then this mail will be definitely rejected, not being spam, but being inter-user communication. Right, as it should be. All email from my domain *is* (at least should be) sent through my server, where it is delivered locally. I can't imagine why I would want to send email from my domain and to my domain via any external server. -- -Eric 'shubes' ___ spamdyke-users mailing list spamdyke-users@spamdyke.org http://www.spamdyke.org/mailman/listinfo/spamdyke-users

I do it myself in two organizations that I help to manage, 'cause I don't want to deal with permanent complains about spam that goes from infected computers. So, user with notebook has only one option - use local SMTP server in such kind of networks to deliver mail. -- Best regards, Yourimailto:loka...@gmail.com ___ spamdyke-users mailing list spamdyke-users@spamdyke.org http://www.spamdyke.org/mailman/listinfo/spamdyke-users

I have a VPN that road warriors use. ;) Or if you have no VPN, port 587 would suit the purpose. I haven't heard of an ISP blocking port 587, but it wouldn't surprise me if there are a few. -- -Eric 'shubes' ___ spamdyke-users mailing list spamdyke-users@spamdyke.org http://www.spamdyke.org/mailman/listinfo/spamdyke-users
