Mail sent from my software blocked by SpamCop


ACS

Recommended Posts

Hello everybody, i've got a problem with some mail sent from a program i developed with VB.net.

This software sends monthly invoices (pdf attachment) to all customers mail addresses in our database. Some of this messages are blocked by SpamCop. If i send the same messages using Thunderbird instead of my software SpamCop don't block them.

This is the error message i get when i try to send the messages.

Hello everybody, i've got a problem with some mail sent from a program i developed with VB.net.

First of all, as stated in countless places here, the FAQs, Wiki, existing Topics/Discussion, SpamCOp.net does not have the power to block your e-mail. The use of the SpamCopDNSBL is a choice made by the receiving ISP/Host. Please see What is SpamCop.net?

Second - what e-mail servers are involved with your software as compared to using Thunderbird?

Youe examples seem to reflect two different outgoing servers, 82.57.200.100 and 82.60.159.43 ... having to assume that those blocked are from the software, then one that (I'm guessing) that shows an accepted e-mail from your Thunderbird client? Having to guess sucks.

Now - a matter of timing perhaps??? http://www.spamcop.net/w3m?action=blcheck&...p=82.57.200.100

82.57.200.100 not listed in bl.spamcop.net

Either it just came off the list, or this is another ecample of a mis-configured e-mail server that's pointing to a wrong 'error' message.

The server in question .. hmmm .. looks like something has been worked on, perhaps leading to the removal from the list ...

Thank you for your answers, SpamCop doesn't block any message, i apologize if i used this wrong words.

The text in the quote is an error message received after sending one mail from my software.

Of the two IPs only one is the outgoing server (82.57.200.100,smtp204.alice.it), the other one (82.60.159.43) is my PC's IP.

Thunderbird is configured in the same way of my software. The SMTP server is "out.alice.it", i don't know how this thing works but it redirects messages to servers named "smtp20x.alice.it" (where x is a random number from 1 to 9)

That's all, i don't really know how to get out of this situation.

This IP is NOT listed in the SpamCop BL and senderbase says that the reputation is 'good'.

these reports of recent spam would suggest that perhaps other users of that IP are sending spam and that you are merely an 'innocent bystander' (q.v.)

Ultimately, it is only your ISP who can fix this by being more proactive in disconnecting infected customers, or you could change ISP to one that is more proactive.

What i was trying to say is that if i send the same message with Thunderbird to the same mail address with the same pdf attachment using the same smtp server, user and password a few minutes later, the customer receives it correctly.

So maybe it's not a matter of IP, maybe there are other parameters checked by the 'blocker' on the spamcop db?

I think we'd need to see the headers in both cases. I suspect that there will a significant difference ;)

You need to see headers? I think this is a problem, i'm just using VB.net functions 'Net.Mail' to send the message, it's a standard function, i think that there's no way to get headers.
Well you can always get the headers by sending a copy to one of your own email addresses - but perhaps other Net.Mail users have already been through the same or similar problems to those you have. Any help from such sources as http://www.eggheadcafe.com/community/aspne...am-problem.aspx?
