Cannot receive any emails from this site

Postby bermmakiah » Thu Jan 10, 2013 11:45 pm

I have a personal domain name through namecheap that I use primarily for email. I haven't been able to get any emails sent from this site to arrive in the gmail account that is set as catchall for that domain. I have confirmed with namecheap support that my DNS is configured correctly. I would very much appreciate it if an admin here could contact support@namecheap.com and reference ticket number NLC-991-58021 to help me figure out where the issue lies.

I also wasnt able to receive my confirmation mail into my gmx.net account, also checked the Spam Folder, nothing in there.

But my GMail account works, so i just picked another user name.

Interesting. I tried several alternate email addresses (including my direct gmail) and this registration system kept telling me they were being detected as spam. I finally set up an outlook account to forward to my gmail, and the registration wizard accepted that outlook address. Not ideal, but working. I mostly want to know if archlinuxarm.org is showing any bounces from my attempts to register my address. If so I want the headers so I can decipher where the blockage is and what to do about it.

I was dealing with the same situation trying to get a confirmation email to sign up on the forum. I contacted an admin and was able to straighten it out that way. It may be something to do with the forum's email settings

It's more like something in the SMTP delivery process.

Hi;

Yes, same here, the problem is that the archlinux forum mail server does not send it's FQDN with the HELO command.

Many mail servers (including POSTFIX) check this and assume that if the sending server is not prepared to announce it's domain name with the HELO command, then it's probably a SPAM server.

Cheers
