[bd] Mails 1.1.0

[MattW]

cat /etc/resolve.conf (if it's a linux server).

I always add google's public DNS servers to my servers

 

[dvsDave]

I'll be honest, I have no idea. How would I find out?

Hang on, I found it.

in the etc/resolv.conf

server localhost
nameserver 208.75.148.101
nameserver 208.75.148.104

 

[MattW]

add another nameserver in there with 8.8.8.8 as the ip address and that will also use google

cat /etc/resolve.conf (if it's a linux server).

Done.

Getting some error's quite frequently in my server logs:

As @MattW said, your server probably had connectivity issue. Try changing the DNS resolver to see if it works. You may want to contact your hosting provider too, it should not happen at all.

@xfrocks - is it possible to make this add-on ignore super administrators? For some reason, one of my e-mail to myself from the site was flagged as SPAM by outlook.com, and I didn't notice as I wasn't online yesterday. Came online this morning, and I was put into the awaiting approval group and had to change my e-mail address.

Good idea, I will whitelist the super admins (specified in config.php).

Btw, have you figured out why they marked the email as spam?

Yeah, someone used the F word in the thread title, and Outlook 2013 on my laptop shoved it in spam, even though I have my domain name whitelisted on the outlook.com website.

Oh, and that trigger a bounce entry at Mandrill? Sounds pretty dangerous.

 

[MattW]

Yep, it reported it back as Spam automatically (even though the e-mail was from a few days previously).

You need to read the error log in the location specified in the message, as that tells you what the actual problem is

 

[tommydamic68]

Ok See what it is, just don't know the issue. The error is from a user who was for some reason black listed as spam or something to that effect. All of her emails vis Mandrill are coming as rejected. All the errors are her trying to reset her password or she is subscribed to. This happened suddenly, she has not any problems until yesterday - today.


Here is the message at the site level she is getting.


From mandrill.

On another note, this user uses Facebook login, so she claims she never had to use a password for the site. Hence why she thinks she can't login regularly to update her email as its asking her to…? What would she change anyway, thats her current email address.

That's correct. User logged in from Facebook doesn't have a password. Hence she will not be able to change the email. Current solution is: you have to change it for her. I will add another check before resetting email address, some accounts may get stuck if they don't have either a password or an email.

So, what is the spam issue? And why did their whole scenario happen?

You were asking me why Yahoo! Mail put the mails in Spam box? I honestly don't know man

 

[tommydamic68]

I guess what I am confused about is, was my sites email spammed or hers was found as spam.

Yahoo! Mail (her email provider) detect email from your site as spam.
