Using Outbound

Post by Rob.M.P »

Hello,

Bit of a newbie question...

I want to configure our EFA to filter outbound mail. We have had a recent spate of being blacklisted. I know I need to look further into this, but can EFA help with outbound filter to possibly reduce the chances of being blacklisted?

We are currently using Exchange mail, I am working on the assumption that I need to direct Exchange to send the email through EFA.

Any advise on doing this?

Hi,

you can send the mails through the EFA. You have to edit (Managemant Console) the Exchange server to use EFA as the smarthost, i would think.

Just EFA should be allowed to send mails externaly (https://wiki.efa-project.org/doku.php?id=firewall_ports).

If you use a monitoring tool (like nagios) you could let check the status of dns block lists: https://nohn.net/blog/view/id/checking_ ... and_nagios
