Hi
A customer recently emailed me and they received a bounce back. They are using Office 365. This was the error received;
A security check at mydomain.com failed due to misconfigured settings at senderdomain.com
(Misconfigured PTR record)
In my Exim file log I have this;
I have forwarded the above detail to their email sysadmin to see if they can get the PTR corrected.
Meanwhile, how can I whitelist any email sent from @senderdomain.com in WHM ? I'd like to know this for future reference too.
I see there is a option in Exim > Basic Editor > Only-verify-recipient
But what hostname should I add? Please give me an example!
Thanks
A customer recently emailed me and they received a bounce back. They are using Office 365. This was the error received;

(Misconfigured PTR record)
Code:
More Info for Email Admins
Status code: 550 5.7.363
It appears that the recipient's email server at mydomain.com performed a reverse DNS (rDNS) lookup security check to verify that the IP address the message is coming from is associated with the sending domain, and the lookup failed. It appears that the pointer (PTR) record for senderdomain.com isn't set up correctly.
Set up or fix your domain's PTR record - If you're the admin for senderdomain.com, work with your DNS hosting provider (your domain registrar, Web hosting provider, or ISP) to correctly set up a PTR record for your domain. If you're using Office 365 to manage your DNS records note that PTR record creation and management isn't supported in Office 365, so you'll have to change your DNS management to a DNS host outside Office 365. Refer to this article for more information and instructions: Change how DNS records are managed with Office 365.
Unfortunately, Office 365 Support can't help you fix these kinds of externally reported errors because Office 365 doesn't support PTR record management.
