550 Sender verify failed
Hi guys,
I've seen a lot of posts about this but I'm afraid the solutions are over my head. Hoping someone might be able to explain in simple terms the potential solutions.
I have an email address that is essentially a forwarder that forwards to my gmail account. I only did this about a week ago and it has made a huge difference to the amount of spam I get. I was very pleased with the solution. All seems to be working well, but today someone emailed me and the email bounced back (response below). The wording of the error suggests to me that gmail has an issue with their address. Is this true? Or is it my setup?
(I'm not sure if all that xxx and yyy was necessary above. If the email and IP addresses are important just ask) Thanks

Hello, Do you by any chance have Sender Verify With Callouts enabled? If so, try disabling with callouts so that just sender verify is enabled and see if that solves the issue. 0 -

Hi cPanelPeter, And here we have our first problem. How would I know? Is it an option in cPanel or WHM somewhere? [COLOR="silver">- - - Updated - - - Just clicking around in WHM i clicked on Email troubleshooter and ran a trace on the email address that is having trouble emailing me. This was the response: virtual_aliases via virtual_aliases router forced address failure Does this mean that the sender's address is configured incorrectly?0 -
WHM >> Exim Configuration Manager (under service configuration) here you will find the option to disable sender verification. 0 -
Hello, Please check to see if the domain in question is in /etc/localdomains or in /etc/remotedomains # grep 'domainname.tld' /etc/localdomains # grep 'domainname.tld' /etc/remotedomains

I don't seem to have that option. Under Server configuration, the only option is 'Basic cPanel and WHM Setup' which only allows me to set nameservers. I wonder if my reseller account is limited in some way?

Should I be typing those lines of code somewhere cPanelPeter? Sorry but I really don't have a clue about this side of things. The only etc I'm aware of is in file manager?!0 -
The option referenced is not available to resellers. I suggest contacting your web hosting provider for assistance with this issue. They will be able to access /var/log/exim_mainlog directly to review specific entries related to the failure. Thank you. 0 -

Ah, ok. I'll do that. Thanks for your advice. Appreciate it.0
