Not receiving email from external sources

I can send email with no problem with mailjet. However I can’t receive any email from external sources.

I’m using cloudflare DNS and oracle cloud. I have ingress rules for the relevant ports. I can telnet to server just fine. My domain is Bargiona.eu if you want to check my dns records to help out.

This is what your server responds with:

=== Trying mail.bargiona.eu:25...
=== Connected to mail.bargiona.eu.
<-  220 free.subnet01221743.vcn01221743.oraclevcn.com

=== Connection closed with remote host.

So all the mails from any source are being rejected because you reached a limit in Spamhaus.

550-Rejected because 203.0.113.1 is in a black list at zen.spamhaus.org
550 Error: excess volume; https://check.spamhaus.org/returnc/vol/140.204.12.41/

Take a look to this post to check a few options to fix it:

That worked! Thank you so much for your time and kindness! I couldn’t figure it out what was happening. May I ask what did you use to get the server response you posted above?

I’m glad it worked :wink:

I’ve used Swaks (Swiss Army Knife for SMTP)
