How to stop "Considered UNSOLICITED BULK EMAIL, apparently from you" notice

[soskamoka]

Hi All!

I've made my first "perfect server - without ISPConfig" with the help of the tutorials can be find at How To Forge. So I am very new at server configuration.
My mail server built up with postfix, amavisd-new, SpamAssassin, ClamAV + MySQL, and running on Debian Lenny.

Everything works fine but I always get "Considered UNSOLICITED BULK EMAIL, apparently from you" message in my outlook:

A message from <myname@mydomain.com> to:
-> myname@mydomain.com

was considered unsolicited bulk e-mail (UBE).

....

It seems like somebody send me an e-mail in my name.

Please help...

Do you use ISPConfig 2 or 3?
Did you check if your server's blacklisted? http://mxtoolbox.com/blacklists.aspx

Hi falko!
I do not use ISPConfig. When I installed the server I skipped ISPConfig...
Yes I have checked if the server is blacklisted,more times before and now but it isn't.

What's in your main.cf? Do you use SMTP-AUTH in your email client?

1. main.cf:

2. Yes, I use SMTP-AUTH, the same as POP3.

Hi ,

I have the exact same problem. How did you fix it?

Thanks

[soskamoka]

Hi!

Actually, I just believed that, I solved, because few days ago, I got a "so called" mail.

So I am working on it again.... !

Here we use ISPConfig 3 + CentOS and this UBE problem appears only in Webmail, when we send inter-domain messages. In Outlook and Thunderbird, no problem.

Anyone have the same problem?

What's the value of mydomain in your amavisd configuration?

[Benaiter]

The name of the server: guinazu.turbo-x.com.br
