Hello,

Okay I can see that too. I don't know what it is but I have some ideas. Let me fix it later today.

Hello,

Both issues fixed. FTOTM was due to new PHP version being non 100% code compatible with the old version. Top banner link was due to firewall setting.

Hello,

Once again, Shaw is rejecting e-mails from Canreef whenever we send out notifications for new PMs or replies to threads. Previously, I have received the following response from them on my inquiry:

Hello,

The error message indicates that the email server at the IP address 96.31.86.198 had been blocked from sending mail to our email server, as the sending server had been flagged by our spam protection system has having sent out a high number of suspicious emails. At this time, our server is not blocking that IP address, or restricting access.

Generally speaking these sorts of issues will correct themselves within a few hours. If the situation persists for longer than that, please contact your mail administrator for further assistance.

If there is anything else we can help you with, please feel free to contact us by phone at 604-629-3000, email or live chat.


Thanks,

Dave

However due to the nature of the e-mails being sent out, Shaw may have flagged us as spamming again. I have e-mailed them again by responding to the above e-mail at van.help@sjrb.ca.

If you are registered with a Shaw address, I suggest either changing it to another one, or call Shaw and let them know that they should adjust their spam setting.

HI, Still have no email from shaw. I phoned them to repeat what you posted, any all I got was," if they can't do anything about this, you certainly won't be able to." And they were totally baffled as to what I was trying to convey to them.

So still no auto-notifications, pms, anything...
Wish this could be rectified without us haveing to set up yet another email account.

Hello,

Yeah I know. Each day I'm getting reject e-mails coming into my personal inbox. I stopped checking for 2 days (on biz trip at the moment) and I just saw close to 600 reject e-mails!

I was referred to their network security team, which I'd approached, and provided samples of one of the reject e-mail's content but was given a standard answer. I inquired if they can put an exception on the firewall and have heard of nothing. If you can call, please ask to speak to this Morgan Pierce person explaining how much trouble we're all having.

Apologies for not posting this earlier. Thought I'd chase them up again but have been seriously ill.

Hi Titus,

Could you have your forum MTA send a message to pd7ims1@shaw.ca so that we can analyze what is happening here?

Please let us know at mail-admins@sjrb.ca when you have done so.

Thank-you,

Hello,

Just did it and have the following in my /var/log/maillog...
Sep 16 08:09:17 production postfix/pickup[32343]: D34914403B0: uid=0 from=<root>
Sep 16 08:09:17 production postfix/cleanup[1642]: D34914403B0: message-id=<20100916150917.D34914403B0@mail.canreef.com>

Command I executed was:
echo "E-mail test from mail.canreef.com at 96.31.86.198 as requested by Morgan Pierce" | mailx -s "ATTN: Morgan Pierce for mail.canreef.com" pd7ims1@shaw.ca

Hi Titus,

The reason you are seeing this is due to the reputation of the IP address that mail is being sent from.

If you reference senderbase.org you will see the reputation there: http://www.senderbase.org/senderbase...g=96.31.86.198

Once that reputation improves, sending to shaw.ca addresses will resume automatically.

Thank-you,

Hello,

Well this is going to take some time as this is a new IP for the site.
Can we please have an exemption placed on the IP? If you check, all the mails being sent out are all valid, non-spam e-mails.

Regards,
Titus

Hello,

I just want to highlight how ridiculous the situation is. Since I have moved Canreef to the new data center, I have received over 9,100 reject e-mails from Shaw to my personal mail box.

On average I receive over 100 of such e-mails a day.
