Redwolf Posted September 27, 2002 Share Posted September 27, 2002 Hi. I noticed BFC has a new spamfilter in effect. Unless they explicity killed me I am unhumble to say that it doesn't work right. It rejects me on my sender address, but the address it uses is not the one I actually use, the assembled this adddress on its own behalf apparently on the reverse lookup of the delivering IP address and then (not surprisingly) rejects it because it looks silly (it is, but only the stuff it invented itself). What the filter does will reject a lot of valid RFC 822 - complicant mail. Looks like a bad idea to me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmatt Posted September 27, 2002 Share Posted September 27, 2002 We have no spam filter in place. No changes have been made to our email in months. Madmatt 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madmatt Posted September 27, 2002 Share Posted September 27, 2002 Trying to remember my old SMTP and POP info from my MCSE days but if I read that header correctly its your ISP that is blocking the email for some reason. Try it again now and tell me what you get. Use my madmatt@combatmission.com address to reply. Madmatt 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwolf Posted September 27, 2002 Author Share Posted September 27, 2002 madmatt@battlefront.com is user unknown. matt@battlefront.com worked this time. Problem appears to be solved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
