Problem with Outlook server sending email
2010-09-24 by Mark Walker
I have this strange problem and was wondering if anybody has experienced anything like it. A sender's Outlook server seems to not to be able to handle greylisting. Their messages were getting bounced, so I first whitelisted the sender, then took the normal recipient off greylisting. Things usually work, but sometimes the sender's server, not my server, kicks the messages back. It seems to be some sort of residual effect of greylisting where something's stuck in a cache or a queue somewhere. The only person who has any problems receiving email from this sender is someone who was once on greylisting. Weird.
