At SHORELESS we adhere to a strict no tolerance policy against spam mails. Therefore, our mail servers conduct a series of automated tests before delivering your mails to our team or email service users.
If you want to make sure that your emails are successfully delivered, you must comply with the guidelines below.
Important
Delivery issues will persist until your administrator takes action to fully comply with our guidelines. Our support team will not be able to assist you otherwise.
Guidelines
- Ensure that you use an existing sender and/or reply to email address when sending mails. Emails from a sender unknown to your domain names' webserver will be rejected.
- If you receive a "Recipient address rejected: User unknown" message, your correspondents' email address doesn't exist on our servers. Check for typos in the address and immediately remove those wrong email addresses from your address book(s) and mailing list(s).
- Ensure that the following email headers included in your message are syntactically correct: Date, From, Sender, To.
- Make sure that the following headers included in your email are limited to just one each: BCC, CC, Date, From, Sender, Subject, To.
- Make sure that your mail server and email client time and date are correctly set as specified in RFC 5322.
- Make sure your mail server has a static IP address.
- Make sure you have valid DNS records of your domain pointing to your mail server IP address and valid reverse DNS records of your IP address pointing to your mail server domain. You can check your DNS configuration here.
- Verify that your domain has a properly configured MX or A record. You can check your MX configuration here.
- Ensure your email server always sends a valid HELO/EHLO value (the fully-qualified domain name) as specified in RFC 5321. You can check your HELO here.
- Verify that your mail server IPs are not listed on one of the Spamhaus.org lists.
