Sendmail: messages being blocked by atmailcloud.com - "stat=Deferred"
 
I have been unable to send messages to certain ISPs, and am getting these messages:

2024-03-09T17:44:16.863099+11:00 debian sm-mta[27973]: 42740Zgm790989: to=<XXXXX@iinet.net.au>, ctladdr=<MYUSER@MYDOMAIN.net.au> (1004/1004), delay=2+02:43:41, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=esmtp, pri=27852616, relay=mx-20.au-east.atmailcloud.com., dsn=4.5.0, stat=Deferred
The common factor is that they all use mx-20.au-east.atmailcloud.com. Eventually I'm notified that the messages have not been delivered.
If I connect to mx-20.au-east.atmailcloud.com

$ telnet mx-20.au-east.atmailcloud.com 25

451-conn-401: IP [XXX.XXX.XX.XX] is listed on Cloudmark CSI Suspect - is
451 currently being throttled
We are a small business, and don't send bulk email. There's no evidence that we harbour a robot that is sending out spam messages.
I have tried to de-list my IP address from Cloudmark, but their web page says I'm not listed.

Is there any way I can resolve this using my Sendmail config - I assume if the connection is throttled, it might still be possible to make a connection.

I just tried
Code:

telnet mx-20.au-east.atmailcloud.com 25
got:

Can anyone?

You can relay your mail through another server, if you have permission. I relay mine through my alma mater's alumni server. Otherwise, I think not.

No.

I've managed to use my ISP's smarthost (found on a forum). I'm not sure how long that will be supported. It took me a long time to work out the correct SPF record. Otherwise I can use another server that I run. I'm hoping that eventually the problem with atmailcloud will eventually go away . . .

Yes, no problem.
Code:

220 mx.i-0f92385efafd7ab5a - SMTP Ready
Of course I was trying from a server that I know isn't on any RBL blacklist and isn't from a residential IP address, it also has fully functional forward and reverse lookups.

The OP has my sympathies as I've had several times where it's been difficult to get an IP off an RBL.
