Email Error .. my ip public blocked

Here is a tool that you should be using regularly:
http://mxtoolbox.com/blacklists.aspx
Put in your email server details there and it will check the major blacklists to see who is blacklisting you. When your email is healthy, no one should be blacklisting you.

The problems with self hosting are cumulative. I know of no one hosting their own email system that isn't regularly hit with blacklists.
My employer has been hosting their own email since 1999, when they got email. I took over support of those system in 2001. Since that time they've been on a black list exactly one time.
Maybe you can count me as someone you know now?

You send directly from your own email system and don't have a front end hosted somewhere like Postini or MXLogic?

Yes I send direct from my own machine and No I don't have a front end like Postini. But I do use AppRiver to receive all of my email to filter out spam and virus...

Your SMTP doesn't connect to AppRiver? Isn't that included in the service?

AppRiver is a competitor with MXLogic and Postini. They have a nice service. They handle sending and receiving your email so that your Exchange server does not need to talk to others directly. When they receive email they handle spam filtering and antivirus so that you do not have to. And they receive email and store it for you even if you are not online.
They can also handle sending email for you. So you send to them and then they send to others so that they handle making sure that they are not blacklisted.

good to know that, and you pay per user or only one time payment no matter how much user you have ??

Last that I knew, AppRiver was per user. I have not used one of these services in a while because we use Office 365 here which includes that type of service automatically.
-
noted .. will bring this up to next meeting
-
Just for some reference...
Generally having a service like MXLogic, Postini, AppRiver or similar is going to be about $2/user/month.
Having Office 365 which gives you all of that plus your entire Exchange server, storage, backup and support is just $4/user/month.
So typically you will find that having the first service doesn't make sense as much as having Office 365, Google Apps or Rackspace Email because they are just so cost effective.
Prices are in USD. You'll need to check the cost in your local currency.

No it's not included - that's an additional fee - or at least it was 10 years ago when we signed up. At this time I'm not sure what it would gain us by sending email out though them? again we've only been on a blacklist once in since 2001.

That's just crazy. I can't believe you've never faced blacklisting. It used to happen so capriciously.

And while my cost per user is closer to $1/user ( I think I'm paying $1.10/user), assuming I can solve the two issues listed in my other thread will push me to O365 when my current Open License SA expires.

so if it is the case i don't see it benefit, if you will pay per user it is better to host the whole mail service and get rid of the headache caused by emails, i know that the price per user in AppRiver will be less than hosting but ii think the difference would be little

That's been my logic for a while. There are exceptions to this, but in general. Once you take into account all of the costs with these kinds of services it makes fully hosted that much easier to swallow.
Especially when fully hosted options from enterprise players start as low as $1/user/month flat!

It's amazing what already paying over 25% of the cost does to offset the equation!

I hear stories about this all the time. But I've not found it to be true. When I was a consultant supporting about 15 local companies, all of which hosted locally, blacklisting happened about once a year over all the clients.
I have my company and other other that I still support (that moved to RS 2 years ago) that until that point only one BL between them in 10+ years.
