Hi all,
You can check here if you IP is RBL listed: http://multirbl.valli.org
For google is a little bit more complex:
https://www.gmail.com/postmaster/
Most of the time the IPs from AWS are already blacklisted and you cannot
do anything. If you care about your email find another provider with
good IP reputation.
And most important: please set(if not already): SPF,DKIM,DMARC. It might
help your score/trust issues.

Best regards,

Ehhh, amazon cloud messages are flagged by us as spam, and some ranges
are even blocked. I would try get a dedicated ip address if you value
your mail.
Thanks for the info Marc. But I feel like when I push in one place it
pops out somewhere else. I do have a fixed IP. When I was using it
directly (not going through SES), the MTAs that had the courtesy of
bouncing with a reason said the IP address was blacklisted but didn't
say where, even though SpamAssassin and mail-tester.com found no
blacklisting. I changed to several other fixed IP addresses and got
the same thing. SA and mail-tester continued to say it's totally
clean.... but MTAs kept bouncing the messages, some with the blacklist
message and some with no explanation. So I went to SES out of
desperation. I'm getting fewer bounces going through SES than not
using it. But your comment worries me a lot. With all of the
gyrations I had to go through to be able to use SES along the
monitoring Amazon does with SES, I'm kinda surprised that it would be
flagged as a spam source.
Is there some trick I'm missing? What do others do when mail keeps
bouncing with no explanation and SA says everything's clean? There's
got to be a way to make my mail more acceptable. Just give me a
fighting chance to fix whatever is wrong. But I have to know what is
wrong before I can address it.
Is there a 'right' solution?
Thx
