Because the internet is no longer fair :( Things are breaking, I cannot get a mail server set up to send mail to microsoft owned properties, no bounce message just a void, I'm 10/10 on mail-test .com, DMARC, SPF, PTR, no RBL, just m$ don't want me to send email to their users, a private RBL maybe, I cannot know because they don't reply to communications regarding it, nothing to do with this point, except it's asymptotic of a capitalist system with no custodians, nobody is being paid to keep it fair, so it won't stay fair, education of the public is a possible hope, but again, nobody pays for that so...
- tudorw 10y agoNothing Google does can surprise me while I can still say 'OK Google' to 'OK Google' and it think I want to search for 'OK Google', who ever searches for 'OK Google' ? Or maybe it's the Android N preview that bricked my phone that explains my mood.
- flyinghamster 10y agoCould this be IPv6-related? I've run my own server for a long time, but when I spun up a new VPS and enabled IPv6, I suddenly couldn't send mail to Comcast customers. It seems that the single default IPv6 address fell into a privately-blacklisted /64. I was able to work around it by firewalling Comcast's IPv6 MX hosts, but getting my own /64 was the real fix. On the other hand, I don't know anyone with an @some-microsoft-property email address, so I don't know whether I'll be having trouble sending things there. I can reach Gmail and Yahoo (and after getting my own /64, Comcast) without trouble, though. EDIT: Hmmm, mail-test.com seems to be a parked domain.
- cornedor 10y agoA college of my has struggled days with this issue, gmail wouldn't accept any mail send from a IPv6, ended up disabling IPv6 at the end. It seems like google only uses IPv6 for internal mail's, sending a mail to another account sends them using IPv4. Even Facebook, Microsoft etc still use IPv4 for their email's.
- dingaling 10y agoGoogle do of course use IPv6 externally, but require rDNS for all inbound IPv6 SMTP sessions. Without that set for your MTA's host they'll reject immediately.
- tudorw 10y agothanks for the thought, I'll check but pretty sure I', stil on IPv4, 6 not enabled, maybe I'll try enabling it, or burning some sort of effigy, http://www.mail-tester.com/ http://www.mail-tester.com/ is the link I intended.
- tudorw 10y agoOkay, jumped some hoops for m$ to try and get my email working, but no joy, sender.office.com reports the IP is not blocked and suggests I refer to bounce error (there is no bounced message), I tried the Outlook mitigation route, and after 24 hours received a "Not qualified for mitigation ... Our investigation has determined that the above IP(s) do not qualify for mitigation." message (my stars). Today I've joined the Microsoft Smart Network Data service, and that reports the IP of the mailserver as having normal service, so where now ? PM Bill?
- JumpCrisscross 10y ago> I cannot get a mail server set up to send mail to microsoft owned properties Apparently eShares is having the same problem. Shareholders with Microsoft-affiliated email addresses couldn't accept certificates.
- wjoe 10y agoThey do maintain their own blacklist, which doesn't seem to be listed on any of the public monitors. When I had this issue it did give a helpful bounce message: Client host blocked using FBLW15; To request removal from this list please forward this message to delist@messaging.microsoft.com (in reply to RCPT TO command) I did as it said and forwarded the message to that address, and got an automated reply and my IP removed a few days later. Maybe your situation is different since you're not getting a bounce message, but try emailing that address if you haven't already.
