    Hi all

    I have setup a server running Ubuntu 14.04 behind an ADSL modem with a fixed Ip address.

    All has been working fine except with one person I have been trying to email, my insurance broker!!

    The chunk of the mail log is

    I have checked both my domain and the recipients domain and neither are blacklisted.

    No problems with any other recipients, just this one.

    I can ping it okay, I can telnet to port 25 of the MX IP address, I can email him through my gmail account.

    Things to check?

    I checked the IP 116.50.57.190 is in blacklist.

    Please ensure it at link

    Good catch srijan.

    It was not there earlier as I checked, although I did find some list somewhere that mentioned a backscatter blacklist.

    I have commented out most of my main.cf references to anti-spam and blacklists but it is still being blocked (I restarted postfix after doing so)

    Any ideas as to which setting is still causing this?
