    Hello, It looks like a firewall rule (or a router rule implemented by your data center) on the cPanel server, or a firewall rule on the remote mail server is preventing the cPanel server from connecting to the remote mail server hosting the email for that domain name. You can verify this by running a command such as: telnet domain.tld 25
    Replace "domain.tld" with the actual domain name you are attempting to send the email to. The normal output should resemble this: # telnet domain.tld 25 Trying 1.2.3.4... Connected to domain.tld. Escape character is '^]'. 220-host.www.domain.tld ESMTP Exim 4.89_1 #1 Fri, 02 Feb 2018 10:52:40 -0600 220-We do not authorize the use of this system to transport unsolicited, 220 and/or bulk e-mail.
    Thank you.

    Hi all, I'm unable to send msgs to a domain (domain.cn) from a server... When dig its mailserver on port 25, I get all sections fine but "ADDITIONAL SECTION" (OPT PSEUDOSECTION / QUESTION SECTION / ANSWER SECTION / AUTHORITY SECTION) The following section might solve my problem: ;; ADDITIONAL SECTION: ce1.dns.com. 165331 IN A 121.12.104.123 ce1.dns.com. 165331 IN A 183.2.194.187 ce1.dns.com. 165331 IN A 218.66.171.187 ce1.dns.com. 165331 IN A 218.98.111.187 ce2.dns.com. 165331 IN A 183.2.194.188 ce2.dns.com. 165331 IN A 218.66.171.188 ce2.dns.com. 165331 IN A 218.98.111.188 ce2.dns.com. 165331 IN A 121.12.104.124 How can I add it to server? Thank you in advance!

    Check the configuration of your firewall, many times similar cases happen because inside our Firewall ConfigServer Security & Firewall> the IP of the external server was being blocked, Also check the configuration of your firewall> Configuration> cc_deny, verify that you are not blocking an entire country and that the IP may be in that range of IPs, Another alternative is to place the IP in the white list of your firewall.
