At first glance most users think this is ChangeIP.com blocking their email.
A response like the one below is being given:
Final-Recipient: rfc822;recipient@example.org
Action: failed
Status: 5.2.1
Diagnostic-Code: smtp;550 5.2.1 Mail from X.Y.Z.A refused: spam site.
Please be aware that this is most likely coming from a Symantec Mail Security package installed on your Exchange server, not from anything we have control over. Please refer to the following URL which shows the 'relays.ordb.org' RBL is obsolete and as of 3/26/08 they just listed the entire internet to get people to stop using it.
http://www.dnsbl.com/2007/02/status-of-relaysordborg-dead.html
To fix this problem please remove the relays.ordb.org RBL from both your Exchange filters as well as Symantec Mail Security. |

ChangeIP.com Releases Free Software to Complement Backup SMTP Service
February 26, 2007 -- ChangeIP.com, a California-based dynamic DNS provider,
recently announced they will be releasing a new software program to complement
their backup SMTP services. The software will be provided to ChangeIP.com users
free-of-charge.
The move, according to company president Sam Norris, is designed to keep
ChangeIP.com’s border servers up-to-date with their clients valid e-mail
addresses.
“We designed the new software to reduce email network traffic and stop
dictionary attacks,” says Norris. “The software supports Microsoft Exchange
Server and automatically synchronizes with the client’s servers. Any invalid
email address is then rejected at our border servers as well.”
The software, “Dynamic SMTP Assistant”, is the latest addition to a long line
of ChangeIP.com’s Dynamic DNS and SMTP features. Dynamic SMTP Assistant is
expected to be one of the few software options on the market that allows
customers to utilize a 3rd party backup service while avoiding dictionary
attacks on all external secondary servers.
“When broadband services were introduced to the general public, suddenly
everybody had the ability to serve content on their own without the need for a
web host,” says Norris. “After first providing the ability to tie domain names
to a dynamic IP address (i.e. broadband web servers), we decided to focus on our
customers email needs as well. That’s where Dynamic SMTP Assistant fits in.”
ChangeIP.com also expects the free software to cut down on down on
unnecessary delivery attempts to primary servers by filtering email at the
border -- a feature not commonly found with other backup SMTP providers.
“Microsoft Exchange is the first mail server to be supported by Dynamic SMTP
Assistant,” states Norris. “Support for most other popular mail servers will be
added, including Merak, SmarterMail, and any other SSH capable servers.”
ChangeIP.com has made the Dynamic SMTP Assistant software available at
http://www.ChangeIP.com/email/dsa/ The software utilizes ClickOnce technology
for rapid deployment and updates.
About ChangeIP.com -- Established in May of 1999, ChangeIP.com provides free
and paid dynamic DNS services to clients around the globe. ChangeIP.com ranks
among the best of dynamic DNS service providers available today.
