[Asterisk-Users] Sendmail with exchange

[Steve Totaro]

They should be willing to turn on relaying for your specific IP or host.
Since I have Comcast cable, I am on a lot of blacklists (they blacklist
all of Comcast's home users subnets).  

To get around this, and I am sure there is a much simpler way
(eliminating Exchange), I allow my Exchange server to relay from one
specific host.  There is no authentication required coming from this
specific host.  

This still doesn't solve the blacklist problem but I use a service
called www.dnsexit.com which has email relay as one of their services.
They are not on any blacklists (that I am aware of)and the reason why I
make the hop to Exchange is because they have an easy how-to with
pictures :-) on their website for authentication from Exchange. 

I followed their instructions and have checked my logs, I am not an open
relay and only use about 500 relays a day average.

I pay $50/yr for 600 relays which is fine for now.  Here are their
prices.

Pricing  
Fully refundable within 30 days of the payment if service is not
satisfied. 
 150 relays per day - $14.95/year 
 300 relays per day - $26.95/year 
 450 relays per day - $38.95/year 
 600 relays per day - $49.95/year 
 900 relays per day - $79.95/year 
 1200 relays per day - $107.95/year 
 1500 relays per day - $139.95/year 
 2000 relays per day - $179.95/year  

Rock solid delivery and have not had any bounced blacklist emails.  Not
sure if the prices are good but I like the service they provide and may
look at somem of the other services they have if I ever need them.

I have no affiliation with this company. 

Thanks,
Steve Totaro
