Hide ip from Spamhaus Policy Block List

Our webserver is hosted in a professional datacenter. For some reason Spamhaus is detecting the sender's home address and not the servers source address. Is there anyway using exim to block the sender's home "received" address and use the server's source address to stop our company emails from being rejected.


Thank you!

 

We aren't trying to do anything about the specific IP. We don't want to use Comcast's email services and we shouldn't be forced to. I we use secure ports and thus have our own equipment. To the outside world, we want the server to be originator, not their home connection.

If possible maybe for a specific domain. If I need to know who the originator's IP is, I can look in the logs.

 

Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas?

 

No they have the correct information set up in their SMTP. The issue is exim reports the source IP that created the email in the headers. This new policy detects that it originated from a Comcast customer and rejects the email, no matter what, unless they use Comcast's smtp servers, which is what we want to avoid.

I found a workaround, for anyone else who has a similar issue follow these instructions.

In WHM -> Exim Configuration -> Advanced Editor

Add the following in the first box:

Code:

received_header_text = Received: ${if def:sender_rcvhost {from ${if def:authenticated_id {localhost}{$sender_rcvhost}}\n\t}{${if def:sender_ident {from ${quote_local_part:$sender_ident} }}}}by $primary_hostname ${if def:received_protocol {with $received_protcol}} ${if def:tls_cipher {($tls_cipher)\n\t}}(Exim $version_number)\n\t${if def:sender_address {(envelope-from <$sender_address>)\n\t}}id $message_exim_id${if def:received_for {\n\tfor $received_for}}

If the message is from an authenticated user, it will display "localhost" instead of the senders home ip address, thus resolving the issue.
