Being "properly configured" these days entails needing many things
that you didn't say. Forward-Reverse-DNS, SPF, DKIM, DMARC just for
starters. And then more in other places.
Impossible to know and so impossible to say. It's a private 3rd party
reputation scoring system in use.
Hello,
I've setup all these things, so *i assume* that my mail server is
properly configured now. the domain it's the same I'm using right now.
But like i said previously, it's a testing server, because i knew
something could go wrong.
i know it's a proprietary, non-transparent spam system. but i hoped that
someone else had a clue about how it works.
i created more than 10 outlook accounts, and I've one premium account
offered by my university. the weird thing is that not every mail that
goes through outlook..protection is being treated in the same way.
basically in every free account, the first times i send emails from my
domain, they go almost always in the junk folder. This doesn't happen,
most of the times, if i send emails to premium accounts. After i mark
as not junk a couple of times, i can receive correctly the emails, but
only from the specific user i marked as not junk.
the premium accounts allow the user to make some sort of special report
as "not junk" in order to change their spam system.
I don't even send 100 mails/day, so probably it's not enough to change
my score.
I will see what happens until June, when my domain expires. If the
problem will persist, I'm gonna contact them and eventually change
domain and IP.
It also heavily depends on the ASN.
It is the most ridiculous filter mechanism I ever came across. We had
a whole ASN blocked and waited for weeks until it was removed from
their list. No information which system triggered it. We never found a
reason nor were we given a reason by MS.
If they decide to filter to "Junk", fine. If they decide to block a
whole ASN and don't give the slightest hint why it happened and don't
even act on it when being contacted for weeks, I wonder who serioulsy
wants to do business with them.
If you don't mind losing mail from your customers, don't care about
non-existing support and finally don't care for privacy: MS is your
choice.
I agree with you, but i'm very biased towards MS. I don't like/use their
products even when are technically good.
Anyway, i assumed that they send some kind of abuse notification to the
ip's owner, but as far as i see they just block you, and that's it. very
easy to do.
