For the last couple of days we have been expecting an important verification message from a specific sender and know when it is being sent.

I have discovered that every time delivery is attempted the email fails to appear, as if it is being completely blocked from even reaching the spambox.

The address has been added to the assp whitelist to no effect and an account level filter has been set up in an attempt to force delivery.

On every occasion the messages are sent the following line has appeared in the ASSP raw log:

Quote:

[sender@address] to: [recipient@address] early (pre)header line check found your special;


What does this mean, why do the emails get no further and why is only the raw log holding evidence it is happening?

Hi,

Ah, this was caused by a temporary block rule we put in place when a huge number of a particular type of spam message was causing issues on the server you are on. I have removed the rule that would cause this now and your email will come through without issue.

Apologies for this oversight.

Thanks,

Andrew

Many thanks for that fast response at such a late hour Andrew.

I'll get the sender to repeat the messages again.
