Qmail Plesk 12 "550 5.7.1 Sorry, message looks like spam or phish to me (OP)"

New Pleskian
Hi!

I have a problem I can't find a solution for.
I don't even have a clue where to look further.

I have an Ubuntu-Webserver with Plesk 12.0.18 installed on. Qmail installed. No Postfix.


When I try to send a mail to a specific address, I get back a failure notice with the following content:
---------------------
(Remote server IP) failed after I sent the message.
Remote host said: 550 5.7.1 Sorry, message looks like spam or phish to me (OP)
---------------------


This happens even if I send a simple TXT-Message with no attachments.
When I try to send the mail through another adress on my server it will not ne accepted, too.
Mails from other Servers will be accepted.

So I checked my Server if it is on any Blacklist through mx-toolbox.com, but everything is ok.

Strange looking, that there is no "From" defined in the middle of my log.
Is it possible, that SPF removes this, so that the mail will be recognised as spam on the other server?

I don't have a clue where to go ahead...

Cheers

Hi Knutsen,

No. The recipient server uses 3rd party RBL to protect their mail - server. Once that one of your mails is identified as suspicious, your IP will be blocked, untill removement. Try to contact the recipient server administration contact and ask for the IP removement, or wait for automatic removement.

Please keep in mind, that some RBL lists are rather strict and may temporary blacklist your IP, when there are missing SPF and DMARC entries.

For further investigations, please provide your IP or FQDN ( fully qualified domain name ).
 
Thanks. :)

My problem is solved. The server was blacklisted on cyren.com, which is not included in mxtoolbox.com.

I had a compromised webspace several weeks ago, which is clean now.
Thought no one had noticed. The mail-traffic is reduced to 10 mails per hour, and is working quite fine.

Regards
