I'm running a relatively new mail server. I've managed to get my server
to send to pretty much all email addresses except for one server:
sbcglobal.net. When I try to send emails to sbcglobal.net customers,
postfix's connection attempts time out. Every time. This has been
happening 100% of the time for at least six months.
Here's a sample from my mail logs:
Nov 30 05:52:58 mydomain postfix/smtp[28398]: connect to
sbcmx3.prodigy.net[207.115.21.22]: Connection timed out (port 25)
Nov 30 05:53:28 mydomain postfix/smtp[28398]: connect to
sbcmx9.prodigy.net[207.115.37.23]: Connection timed out (port 25)
Nov 30 05:53:58 mydomain postfix/smtp[28398]: connect to
sbcmx7.prodigy.net[207.115.37.21]: Connection timed out (port 25)
Nov 30 05:54:28 mydomain postfix/smtp[28398]: connect to
sbcmx5.prodigy.net[207.115.21.24]: Connection timed out (port 25)
Nov 30 05:54:28 mydomain postfix/smtp[28398]: 3980347D80A2:
to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, relay=none, delay=283474,
delays=283324/0.04/150/0, dsn=4.4.1, status=deferred (connect to
sbcmx5.prodigy.net[207.115.21.24]: Connection timed out)
Here's some additional facts:
1) I have SPF records set up in DNS.
2) I'm using DomainKeys to verify outgoing messages.
Does anyone know anything about getting email through the sbcglobal.net
servers? Barring that, does anyone know of a way to contact someone at
sbcglobal for help? (Email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] gets no response.)
Thanks,
Greg Coates
