The message has been generated by Outlook (or claims to be), has been sent directly from the client (MUA), Outlook, to the receiving SMTP (MX) and contains an image. The latter is just sugar coating -- your MUA should not directly send to the receiving SMTP. Assuming you *are* using Outlook to generate the messages, how did you make it directly using the MX, instead of your ISPs SMTP? If both, the >From and To addresses happen to live on the same server, then it is badly configured -- talk to your ISP. > Message 2. > The message just has 4 rows of plain text. > What does mean RCVD_IN_XBL=3.033 ???? The sending / transporting machine (probably your computer) right before the receiving SMTP is listed in XBL, a blacklist that contains IPs of exploited, malware infected end-user PCs. Even while the listing still might be due to another user having it shortly before, rather than your machine -- the underlying issue is likely just the same as above. End-user machines are not supposed to directly talk to the MX. > Message 3 > Plain text, while score is very low, it still is flaged as spam. > What means the RCVD_IN_SORBS_DUL=2.046 ???? SORBS Dial Up List, another blacklist. Translates to "end-user machines are not supposed to directly"... Wait, I said that already. :) > X-Virus-Scanned: amavisd-new at estpak.ee > X-Spam-Status: No, score=1.047 tagged_above=1 required=4.91 > tests=[BAYES_00=-1, HTML_MESSAGE=0.001, RCVD_IN_SORBS_DUL=2.046] SA did not flag this one as spam. The SMTP rejected it for another reason. All in all, your problem is that your mail client (is it really Outlook?) is sending mail directly to the MX. Instead, you should be using your ISPs SMTP.
