Shared Server Registration Email (Sendmail?) Problem

Regular Joined: Oct 22, 2003 Posts: 59

Greetings,

I am on a Powweb shared server and have a Nuke 7.8 installation.

All email sent from nuke, whether it be registration, feedback, etc... do not get delivered to ISPs like Verizon, AOL, Comcast, Yahoo, and Earthlink.

They do however get delivered to smaller ISPs and Gmail.

I am assuming this is due to some type of anti spam measures in place by the large ISPs.

I have limited access to my server, so I cannot edit php.ini or sendmail config settings. What other options do I have to get email to my members who use email accounts with the big ISPs? Is there a way to route email through something else? Any settings I can change in Nuke?

I am REALLY jammed up here and would appreciate your help!

There's very little you can. Each ISP sets their own standards to block.
You can check your server against standard block lists...

Here's a site to check multiple blocklists - http://www.robtex.com/

So, there isnt any way of routing the mail through something else?

Get another mail server and have your host use that instead (unlikely they will do that, because its a shared server)

Time to move hosts Smile
