Re: [LUG] Email reputation

 

Looking more closely at the Symantec reasons for blocking and cross checking with the results of http://multirbl.valli.org/lookup/ looks like 6 fails and DNS.

http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools check showing an open relay.

Is there a full proof way of checking if its definitely an open relay, if it is how do I shut it down?

Regards

Matt
