209.x.y.z is a static address with a DNS entry courtesy of my ISP.
Any idea what the list's mta is looking for and how I can provide it?
Yes i have, i have the same issue, i have a static ip on my colocated machine, but there is no reverse dns lookup configured yet. When FreeBSD mailingservers cannot find a reversed lookup, it rejects your email until it can (the mail gets killed after your timeout trigger has been reached).
So please check whether your 209.?.?.? adres has a reversed lookup since that might be the problem :)
Actually, the IPS's DNS entry is for reverse lookup. I suspect that the problem might be that a forward lookup returns a different IP address. That is:
domain.net --> 172.1.1.1 While 209.1.1.1 --> domain.net
Because the domain is redirected normally to domaindirect servers. I probably need to change the primary DNS entries, but I'm not certain yet.
GOD!!!! I hate the hoops we need to go through to avoid filthy spammers!!!!
