I've built an SMTP server but need help with the configuration as emails appear to be getting blocked and labelled as spam with some other various servers. I'm guessing that we need to setup the DNS better but not sure the best way to do this. I would really appreciate some help with this setup.

Hello. Lots of sysadmin experience here. If this is a new server and/or IP then it is usual for your mails to end up in spam. This is called warm-up phase. Just keep sending mails (no spam) and filters will let you through at some point. If you still believe this is happening due to an error or misconfig of some sort and need my help - I will be happy to audit and review everything on your end. Just let me know. Thank you.

Hi, SMTP server building is easy but ensuring deliverability is the most complex task because the remote providers (recipients' providers - Gmail, Outlook-Hotmail-Msn-Live, Yahoo and AOL) use a very critical and sensitive security/filtering systems which usually block and mark the emails as SPAM even though the emails are going from legitimate business. DNS authentication setup or configuration as well as ALIGNMENT are MUST for any emailing service but those are only BASIC MUST and they usually do not solve SPAM landing issues or blocking issues. There must be some other reasons which are under your SMTP configuration and how your MTA and other components/SMTP processors are generating the email. For example, any unnecessary X-header generated by your SMTP server will be treated as SPAM email or any wrong encoding is in place also might get blocked. If you have no proper rDNS configuration, your emails might be in several serious blacklist databases and your emails might get bounced from the remote server. Anyway, these are all analytical works and usual time for resolution is 12-15 days and might be more depending on how it is on the other end. The most problematic scenario is, the remote providers' supports do not answer on such cases and we have ONLY choice is to play with their filtering system to know what we are doing wrong and how to fix it. Well, I have few questions: - Have you tested your emails through mail-tester? - Are you doing bulk emailing? Thanks. Probal
