Spam content error from Exchange SBS 2003

Hi Experts,


We are running SBS 2k3 with exchange 2k3. Recently when I try to send an email to a particular recipient, I get the following error:

Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.

      Subject:      FW: RRC and customer set up
      Sent:      2010-08-13 4:34 PM

The following recipient(s) cannot be reached:

     Joe Blow on 2010-08-13 4:34 PM
            You do not have permission to send to this recipient.  For assistance, contact your system administrator.
            <xxxx.com.au #5.7.1 smtp;550 5.7.1 Message rejected as spam by Content Filtering.>


I get this same error when I send it to any of the staff for this company. I can send an email to any other company fine just this one I get the above error.

Does anyone know where I can change my settings in exchange system manager for content filtering or any where else to overcome this problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many Thanks

Hi,

sunnyc7:
I checked for black lists and checked at www.senderbase.org and it was all good. I'll copy and paste the header soon.

alanhardisty:

i sent with just written on subject and body of email with nothing else(no signatures) and it still failed.
Any thoughts?


If a simple message is failing, then it is not failing because of content.  Sounds like they are blacklisting you specifically, or doing so incorrectly for some other reason.
You may have to contact them and find out why they are rejecting your mail.
Alternatively, use telnet to test mail-flow to their server (from a command prompt):
telnet mail.theirdomain.com 25 (check the name of their mail server first).
Then issue the following commands:
ehlo yourdomain.com (press enter)
mail from: <youremailaddress@yourdomain.com> (press enter)
rcpt to: <theiremailaddress@theirdomain.com> (press enter)
At this point, you should either have been given a "go away" type message or it will still be waiting for input.
Which is it?
Problem fixed it self I can send emails now....Thanks for your efforts
