Hi,
I am getting complaints from customers that legit mail from o365 is being rejected.
One of the bounce messages contains the following:
Error Details
Reported error: 554 5.7.1 <NAM04-MW2-obe.outbound.protection.outlook.com>: Helo command rejected: Host not found
DSN generated by: DM5PR1801MB1961.namprd18.prod.outlook.com
Remote server: mail4.example.com
This is the 3rd time I have run into this problem.
Below are the 3 hosts involved:
NAM04-SN1-obe.outbound.protection.outlook.com
NAM04-BN8-obe.outbound.protection.outlook.com
NAM04-MW2-obe.outbound.protection.outlook.com
I have whitelisted the above but I am wondering if anyone else is seeing this?
I just checked again and NAM04-SN1-obe.outbound.protection.outlook.com now has an A record but the other 2 do not.
Is there a better way to handle this type of thing. I feel like this is going to be like playing whack-a-mole.
Regards,
Tom
