5.5.0 smtp;554 transaction failed spam message not queued
- by Miguel
Some users are trying to send email to certain domains using Exchange Server 2003, but the message is always is rejected and the following message is shown:
5.5.0 smtp;554 Transaction Failed Spam Message not queued
The IP is not in a black list (checked using http://whatismyipaddress.com/blacklist-check and is clean - not listed).
The emails were checked using using smtpdiag ("a troubleshooting tool designed to work directly on a Windows server with IIS/SMTP service enabled or with Exchange Server installed") and the connection using port 25 is ok.
Also, an nslookup with set type=ptr shows (names and IP changed, "" means I typed something):

When I test the spf record with http://www.mxtoolbox.com it shows:
TXT mydomain.com 24 hrs v=spf1 a mx ptr ip4:20.21.22.23 mx:mail.mydomain.com -all
Any clues of what's happening here?
