I'm running two QDNS servers (ns1.zada.net, ns2.zada.net) on a DSL
reverse DNS questions
From: Hazlitt
Date: Thursday, September 4, 2003
Time: 6:48:15 pm
line supplied by SBC (originally Pacific Bell). I provide hosting and
email forwarding for a handful of customers.
rr.com recently started blocking messages that I'm forwarding to a
hosting customer of mine, who uses rr.com for his POP mailbox. I
inquired about the blocking and they replied [see below].
I'm not quite sure how to proceed. Is there something I can do in
QDNS or do I need to contact SBC to get them to modify their reverse
DNS?
A big TIA for any tips on how to solve this.
