  • 1.  501 Connection rejected by policy [7.7]

    Posted Oct 29, 2014 10:24 AM

    Greetings!

    We are a company offering various Internet related services.

    Recently, we have transferred all our hosting servers to a new hosting server.

    Our new and clean IP's have been listed as bad reputation on Symantec's list. at http://ipremoval.sms.symantec.com/lookup/. The IP has been neutralized and is not listed as a bad reputation anymore.

    But yet, we still receive a return email as follows;

    SMTP error from remote mail server after initial connection:
    host cluster9.us.messagelabs.com [216.82.249.35]:
    501 Connection rejected by policy [7.7] 13802, please visit www.messagelabs.com/support for more details about this error message.

    I haven't confirmed yet, however I believe that the recipient domain is a client of Symantec. And it seems like the bad reputation de-listing is not updated or applied in the client's system.

    This is very inconvenient for us as we will need to contact all of these domains to lift the target IP manually. It is not a practical practice at all.

    I would appreciate if anyone could shed some light to this matter.

    Thank you very much and good day.

    Hello,

    The cluster9.us.messagelabs.com hostname is part of the hosted email security services offered by Symantec.Cloud. The error 501 Connection rejected by policy [7.7] is related to a different system than the ones governed by http://ipremoval.sms.symantec.com/lookup/.

    It is best to reach out the recipient so that they can open a case with Symantec.Cloud support to investigate into the IP in question and provide feedback to the customer who can then share this information with you.

    We too have recently transferred a new hosting server and are getting returned mails:

        SMTP error from remote mail server after initial connection:

        501 Connection rejected by policy [7.7] 12309, please visit www.messagelabs.com/support for more details about this error message.

    When checking our IP using the ipremoval lookup we get this message:

    The IP address you submitted does not have a negative reputation and therefore cannot be submitted for investigation.

    If our IP does not have a negative reputation, how can we resolve this issue?

    Thanks.

    Do you really think this is feasable? Ask our client to ask their correspondent to ask Symantec.Cloud support to look into the problem then report back to their client to report to our client to report to is???

    Doen't Symantec.Cloud support staff look at this forum? If they don't they should!!

    BTW the actual 501 messages reports to a missing page.

    Does anyone takes care of this things at Symantec????

    Hello,

    The Symantec cloud services are managed almost entirely by the clients. They have tools to reviews emails sent to them, along with ways to report issues, query blacklists with the cloud support team to gain insight on the senders that attempts to send them mail.

    With that in mind, it is indeed best to reach out to the recipient and advised them their Symantec Cloud service is blocking their attempt to send email. They often have ways to review these emails and take action to receive them while working with Cloud support to gain more insight on the any email delivery issues that are reported.

    Ultimately, it is the recipient's prerogative on how they wish to configure the cloud service and work with the support team in regards to the emails they receive. With that being said, I do still invite you to send an email to support.cloud@symantec.com along with any bounce and information on the sending IP of the server clearly identified in the email. In some cases we may be able to do a preliminary investigation which can often help reach a resolution with the help of the Cloud client.

    In regards to the help page itself, I apologize in regards to the link, please use the below link until further notice.

    Hello,

    We finally could be setted out of the Brightmail system reputation list by filling the status form.

    We also open a case study to the support and we received an email from the support about their policies.

    The point is now that when responding to the support we got a return mail:

    (host cluster4.us.messagelabs.com[216.82.253.243] refused to talk to me: 501 Connection rejected by policy [7.7] 17108, please visit www.messagelabs.com/support for more details about this error message.)
                                             support.cloud@symantec.com

    Following the 501 Connection rejected by policy (7)

    1/ We are not open relay

    2/ We are not listed in any RBL

    3/ Here is the default = > we can not mail to the symantec support because the error 501.

    Solutions would be to contact the support by opening a new case filling a form.

    The Symantec.Cloud rejection is based on a different system altogether than the Brightmail reputation system. I recommend you attempt to continue the dialogue with support with any other available email addresses outside of the affected network if available.

    I must still recommend that in nearly all cases the best course of action is to contact the Symantec Cloud client or recipient via other means and explain that your email to them is being blocked. Provide all relevant details of who the message was sent to, including the public facing IP of the sending server. The Symantec Cloud clients manage the service themselves and they ultimately have control from whom they choose to receive emails.

    I am getting the same now. Why should WE be begging your clients to sort this out when it is YOUR po0licies doing this? Beleive me, it is YOUR police, just the smae as Outlook/Live?Hotmail. You are blanket banning emails sent from specic clusters of IP addresses because someone using the same hosting provider is spamming! You are going to destroy business with this awful software.

     

    Let me tell you my scenariio - I am legitimately trying to email a member of staff at a large company. First, my email gets rejected so that immediately damages my reputation! Then, I'm expected to get that memebr of staff to spend their precious time trying top sort this out - of course, that member of staff has no authority to do so and so has to waste more time trying to find the right person to report this to. What are the cahnces of that hepening.

    YOU can sort these messes out by changing the policies so that individual email addresses are listed as spammers and not server IPs.

    So, whi should I invoice for the time, effort and loss of business caused by your indescriminate policies? mm?

     My bounced email:

    I think I got this sorted thanks to David Parker  above. I must say I have yest to test it but he says that I am now unblocked.

    This is a problem with a blanket spam detector and shared IP.

     

    the peoblem in my case was it was being blocked by BBC, Liverpool City Council etc and it is impossible to track down the person who has the authority to contact Symentec.

     

    Good luck guys.

    Hi Dave,

    We are having the exact same issue and to be honest its a bit of a pain.

    Your tools show we do not have a bad reputation, yet we get a 501 rejection from MessageLabs, so have no way of resolving the issue.

    We can not contact all our clients by phone and ask them to 'unblock' us.

    Is there someone I can contact to ensure that our emails get through?

    Hello all,

    One of my clients that I host for is having the same issue. I was hoping to see if my IP could be checked as well:

    109.73.225.114

    The specific Diagnostic Code is [7.7] 2804.

    I had looked the IP up with one tool by Symantec about a week ago, which said the reputation was neutral, and advised my client to try using our email server to send. He got a blocked message again which led me to this thread.

    I tried the IP Reputation Investigation which did turn up the IP and submitted a request to have it checked. However, I see in the second post on this thread that the IP Reputation system is separate from what is blocking this email.

    I took over this IP when switching to a new VPS about a year ago. I run a small web design firm that also hosts for all our clients, and can confirm that none of my clients do any spamming or mass emailing of any kind through this server.

    Thank you!

    Same here, I'm in a never ending of try again. 

    Below just an example but happen us with clients that have messagelabs cloud.  Our IP is not reported in any list, we didn't sent spam we sent emails just to clients related with out business. We implemented DKIM, SPF and DMARC. We also requested many times the removal from sms symantec lockup page, but then fall again as reported, but in any other list doesn't appears like reported.

    In other sites, like Cisco, we're just Neutral, but because of low volume of email sent.


    Please, help us. It's not possible to try to contact each client to ask them to contact you to create a case to try to fix this.

    Hello this is happening to us too

    I think Symantec must to update the databases a little bit faster.
    Also becasue you not have ANY form, or email to claim!!!

    My clients are receiving the bellow reject :

    host cluster6.us.messagelabs.com [216.82.242.46]

        SMTP error from remote mail server after initial connection:

        501 Connection rejected by policy [7.7] 9604, please visit www.messagelabs.com/support for more details about this error message.

    But my IP 108.170.31.234 is GREEN in all places :
    spamhaus / senderbase.org / cloudmark / ALL RBL lists and EVEN IS UNBLOCKED IN SYMANTEC!!!

    http://ipremoval.sms.symantec.com/lookup/ -->

    The IP address you submitted, 108.170.31.234, does not have a negative reputation and therefore cannot be submitted for investigation.


    THEN please can you unblock it and take a look at your cloud service?
    When you block IPs  affect our business a LOT and we can´t conctact anyone of symantec to claim.. is a SHAME.

    Regards
    Fabian Marsiglione

    I also am experiancing this problem most of which with high end clients i must say it is very annoying quoteing a new client and the email bounces back and then having to use gmail account very unproffesional i must say.

    i have also done steps like previous comments i have spoken with Symantec which were like others mention most unhelpfull and downrite useless although they did say that my IP and hostname were not blocked i have also checked open relay test and confirms no relays accepted the ip is also not on any blacklist, i have also checked with my ISP and nothing is blocked there either so why block me.

    this is my message i keep getting

    This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

     

    A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its

    i personally think this company is a joke cause a right inconveince and from what ive gone through i dought id ever purchase one of there products

    Hi.

    1 week ago I requested a release of an IP, which I think were entirely lawful but blocking IP is still active.
    Imagine for a momnet.

    A computer that has not been on for 3 months.

    The user turns on the computer, and a client that uses your service sends all emails with acknowledgment message read.

    What do you think happen when he tur on the computer and read 300 emails?

    Result? blocking IP

    So, what can we do?

    Kind regards.
