Hi, got an issue reported by one of my users. He can't send emails to @t-online.de users. After researching I found out that my mail server ip is listed for at least 4 weeks on the list. This is really critical for me. To reduce back scatter I already followed several suggestions on the net. But I checked on it again and the IP was again reported. Heres my postfix main.cf Code: # See /usr/share/postfix/main.cf.dist for a commented, more complete version # Debian specific: Specifying a file name will cause the first # line of that file to be used as the name.

My people are already complaining. I know the list from backscatter.org should not be used by this way, but I have to deal with this. Hope somebody experienced this already. thx Chris
What list? When you use the term backscatter, do you mean this?: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backscatter_(email)
Hi, I have been listed here: www[dot]backscatterer[dot]org according to several online tests for Backscatter, my server is not sending this. I'm irritated honestly. reverse DNS is set up correctly at the provider and name server. None of the tests of mxtoolbox are without any results.
