John,
 
When I search the E......log files for the 24th I get no hits for
Marietta. Am I looking in the wrong place?

On your server in the SMTP log, it will show what the sending server
announced itself (HELO) as along with the IP.

I do not know, as I did not get to see the header info.

First, what is their HELO as your server saw it?

 

BTW, that answer from them unfortunately is the attitude many take, "It
is your problem, not ours."

Thanks John. Yes their servers are not sending, using, Sender ID.
according to their Exchange Admin, who called me. To say that I should
white list them as he is not changing their servers.

Now my problem is how do I white list them for Sender ID. I do not see a
place to do this in Message Delivery Properties. Any suggestions?

 

Todd

You are rejecting their email based upon your configuration, in this
case because the HELO of the sending server does not meet the
requirements of your implementation. The DNS report you listed means
nothing in this case, since they are sending out through a different
server from what they are receiving on.

 

What you need to do is review the log or if the postmaster message
includes the sending (email) server HELO. This is what is wrong.

Email going out of your server or to your server?

One of our customers e-mails was returned to them with the above error
message. I e-mailed them a DNSstuff report with this error

WARNING: One or more of your mailservers is claiming to be a host other
than what it really is (the SMTP greeting should be a 3-digit code,
followed by a space or a dash, then the host name). If your mailserver
sends out E-mail using this domain in its EHLO or HELO, your E-mail
might get blocked by anti-spam software. This is also a technical
violation of RFC821 <http://www.DNSstuff.com/pages/rfc821.htm>  4.3 (and
RFC2821 <file:///\\tools\rfc.ch?detail=2821>  4.3.1). Note that the
hostname given in the SMTP greeting should have an A record pointing
back to the same server. Note that this one test may use a cached DNS
record.

They called me back to say that they do not use sender ID and that my
Exchange server is configured wrong. I am running Exchange 2003 SP2,
IMF, RBL and anti-spam software on the Exchange and ISA2006 servers.

Do I have something wrong in my configuration that caused the 550 5.7.1
error.
