RE: Who is legacy@legacy.ventures?



The MX records for legacy.ventures are:

legacy.ventures MX preference = 0, mail exchanger = smtp.secureserver.net
legacy.ventures MX preference = 10, mail exchanger = mailstore1.secureserver.net

According to WHOIS, 'secureserver.net' belongs to GoDaddy. There is also a Webmail interface on: https://sso.secureserver.net/?app=email&realm=pass

..and as previously discussed;

Address:  40.92.3.27
Name:     mail-oln040092003027.outbound.protection.outlook.com

So, what we have here is:

1. Posts are sent to the list
2. List sends post to all subscribers
3. SOMEONE who is using outlook.com (but not necessarily having a @outlook.com email address, it could be @hotmail.com, or a personal domain etc.), has set their mails to be forwarded to 'legacy@legacy.ventures'.
4. The MTA at smtp.secureserver.net is refusing the email, because quite rightly, outlook.com (40.92.3.27) is not an authoritative sender for *our* email addresses.

I'm guessing, that smtp.secureserver.net, is reverse checking the From: address in the email headers, which in the case of this list, is the actual sender, not the list-address. Further guessing, this is GoDaddy enforcing strong anti-spam techniques.

Crazy idea... but has anyone actually emailed 'legacy@legacy.ventures' directly, and asked them to fix their forwarder?

... and here comes another one... yeah, I should see if I can block those.

Is there any chance we can get the debian mailing list administrators to look into this?
