Using my gmail account works fine as already mentioned. However, my other account I used formerly does not work.
I checked the FAQ of my ISP regarding this problem and found this:
- Mails have to be compliant with the standards defined in RFC 2822.
- The mails must not be sent directly to our MX servers from dial-up networks.
- A reverse DNS entry (FQDN) of the sending server has to be present.
- A sensible HELO/EHLO (format of the beginning of a mail) in the sense of RFC 2821 has to be sent.
- By the request of the client we check the SPF Records. The adresses of the sender of forwarded messages have to make use of SRS.
- The sending server must not be an open proxy. This means it must be protected from unauthorized access.
They also mentioned they use various blacklist databases. However, in all cases they would return meaningful SMTP error messages.
Maybe you have access to logs of the sending attempts? If so, you could try whether you find something there. My address that doesn't work is webmaster at hp-film dot de.
PS: I am thinking about merging this topic with the one in the Test Forum. Hopefully this is ok.
