MX record for your domain tech-portal.me points to mailserver.me that is using an old version of Vesta. Maybe you want to modify the MX record of your domain to point to mail.tech-portal.me

Ok I edited records to pint to mail.tech-portal.me but now I have


550: Rejected because 66.163.191.82 is in a black list at zen.spamhaus.org

That error occurs because your server is using an open DNS resolver, such as 1.1.1.1, 9.9.9.9, etc.

To fix it check out this post:

Ok so I added DNS=76.76.2.0 76.76.10.0 to /etc/systemd/resolved.conf and I send mail~from gmail and it worked so I tried with yahoo but got this error

No mx record found for domain=petch-portal.me

What do you think ?

Edit: Oh never mind it’s my typo in email address

Thanak you very muxh @sahsanu
