Hi all, first post - go easy! We have setup our WHM server this weekend and all is going well, or was until we had our email return 550 / 5.7.1. This part is cool, we have managed to have the spamhaus DBL unblock. But, it has raised a question. The domain used to send the email is [Removed] the error says the email came from our hosting domain name which is megan. [Removed] This, i'm sure makes sense as I can see a connection;) But why does it not come from the sender domain [Removed] was rejected due to listing in Spamhaus DBL. For details please see [Removed]

  Hello, It's normal for the server's hostname to appear in the message headers, but you may also see an email address that looks like "$username@$hostname" if the email is coming from a PHP script installed on the account that isn't using SMTP authentication. Thank you.
