The masquerading options are for a different purpose. I'm glad you got it sorted out.
Although I'm able to send mail to most people without a problem using smarthost, I still have a few that bounce back with errors like: Your message was rejected by mail.lance.com for the following reason:
Service unavailable; Client host [cdptpa-omtalb.mail.rr.com] blocked by zen.spamhaus.org; http://www.spamhaus.org/query/bl?ip=70.62.90.185I'm using the smarthost server that I should be using according to the information: define(`SMART_HOST',`smtp-server.carolina.rr.com')dnl
Although I'm in a residential IP range, my connection is Business Class, so sending smtp mail is not restricted (at least contractually).
Why would I still have this problem if I'm using smarthost? Is there a way to resolve it?
I would contact the RR support folks. I think they are the ones that would need to clean up the blacklist entry with Spamhaus. They should also be able to help ensure that your configuration is right. Just be prepared to get through the level 1 support delays before you get any help though. That's been my experience.
Your IP address, 70.62.90.185 is in two DNSRBLs we check, dul.dnsbl.sorbs.net and zen.spamhaus.org. The sorbs listing is of dynamic IP addresses, and zen is a conglomeration of several of the spamhaus.net DNSRBLs.
Both of these DNSRBLs are widely used, thus it would be a good idea to either get a static IP from Road Runner that's not listed in either of these, or to use a smart-host for outgoing e-mail that will accept mail from your server regardless of the DNSRBL listings.
