Outbound message getting 554 rejecting banned content from Postini

exchangeexchange-2010spam

Setup: In-house Exchange Server 2010 using Postini for spam protection.

An user in our organization is getting his outbound emails to a particular recipient bounced back with an error of "Postini #554 rejecting banned content ##". I have added that recipient to this user's "Approved Recipient" list to no avail.

I'm looking for advice on how to troubleshoot this issue. At the moment, I can't find any log messages for this particular email.

This is not coming from your end. It is on the recipients end and they are blocking it. If it was your end then postini would have -psmtp at the end of the error. That is why adding it to the approved list did nothing.

You have to see about them adding the sender to the approved list.

I know this is an old question but it still comes up on Google so I figured I would answer it.

Certainly, out of the box, there is no support for VERP in Exchange 2007/2010. As you know. I don't believe you'll be able to create a transport rule, even with PowerShell, to do what you want. I believe the closest you will get is building your own Transport Agent. You can find the Exchange SDK at msdn.microsoft.com. If your goal is to determine who a message bounced for, you may be better off parsing the protocol logs. Protocol logging must be turned on, and has separate send/receive logs. Good luck, Paul

Allow email from a particular sender through spam filter

Open powershell via the exchange menu item and run those commands:

$list = (Get-ContentFilterConfig).BypassedSenders
$list.add("mail@domain.com")
Set-ContentFilterConfig -BypassedSenders $list
