Hi

This may be complicated -

I have many co.uk domain names that are on a company called DSVRs name servers. I have full access to DNS and decided to move the domains to a US server (bandwidth getting costly) I was able to point to domains to the new IP address now what is happening is that emails are bouncing back with

I now am receiving no emails if I send any they bounce back with
a header of

This Message was undeliverable due to the following reason:

Each of the following recipients was rejected by a remote mail server.
The reasons given by the server are included to help you determine why
each recipient was rejected.

Recipient: <iain@ourpage.co.uk>
Reason: Host mta03-svc.ntlworld.com [62.253.162.43] is not permitted to relay through venture.vosn.net. Perhaps you have not logged into the pop/imap server in the last 30 minutes. You may also have been rejected because your ip address does not have a reverse DNS entry. relaying to <iain@ourpage.co.uk> prohibited by administrator


can anyone shed some light on why this error? I have emails forwarded to my dial up email account..

Am I trying to do something that is impossible?
any help will be greatfully received

Ok

Has anyone any advice.

I am uk based & have 10 domains that I want to point to the same directory/ip address. I have full DNS control here in the UK and do not want to transfer the names from the nameserver they are on - what I have done is simply pointed the domains to the new ip address.

This was going well emails were getting through when hosted with oneworldhosting.com, however me being fussy I have decided to move to ventureonline.com and now all emails bar the one domain I signed up with are bouncing back with mainly this

Recipient: <iain@ourpage.co.uk>
Reason: Host mta03-svc.ntlworld.com [62.253.162.43] is not permitted to relay through venture.vosn.net. Perhaps you have not logged into the pop/imap server in the last 30 minutes. You may also have been rejected because your ip address does not have a reverse DNS entry. relaying to <iain@ourpage.co.uk> prohibited by administrator

I have spoken to (emailed) ventureonline and they have said it is there anti spam measures if the other domains are not listed on the server they will not be routed - is there a work around? Can anyone suggest another host? I have had my eye on dockingpoint.com - any views?

I think if ventures add the other domains to the mail server allowd domains list it will then accept mail for them and it would work but they might suggest you get an account for each domain, some hosts do that. Easy $$. I think they are right to have the SPAM policy and it is good that it works. It should block all domains but thoses listed (which have accounts).

Not an easy one to solve, if you find a host that accepts all your email with no configuration it will probably relay email anywhere so when SPAMer's find it it will go SLOW as they get it to send loads of email for them. Then the host wil add loads of security and it will stop working.

There might be a forwarding service somewhere that would alter the destination email address to someting@the-account-hosted-at-vo.com then vo's server would accept it.

Try asking vo what they suggest.
