Commtouch Blocking
Problem reported by Alexander Weinandt - 5/21/2015 at 8:52 AM
Submitted
Hi All
 
So I had a client contact me regarding a company that was sending out class registrations to the class admins.
These emails were landing in the Smartermail junk email folder. The client went online and was able to retrieve these messages 3 days too late but was able to get them. Client then added the registration email domain to safe senders list on the server, not on their personal Outlook settings.
Still the messages end up in their junk folder. I went and looked at the message and noticed that commtouch had appended a score of 30 to any emails coming from this site. I looked at the 10 previous messages from this company, and all had the same appendage from commtouch. This company has more than one ip address associated with their email servers. So I went to Cyren's website to check on the reputation of all the ip addresses I found in the emails. All of the IP's check out okay.  So now I am baffled. I would contact them, but I purchased the spam addon from smartertools. 
Any suggestions?
 
Alex

What do the SMARTERMAIL SMTP and DELIVERY log say about the individual messages?

Let me know what you think,  I did another check on this IP address at the Cyren website and this IP came back as no risk

Ancient thread, found via Googling for the problem cited, and this issue persists with exactly the same symptoms. Cyren just doesn't seem to provide any value for the price, and that may not be squarely on Commtouch's shoulders but a problem with commercial security services in general, wasting time chasing down false positives that provide zero insight into their blocking decisions is not what I'm paid to do, providing transparent integrated mail security is what we pay Cyren to do. Fired.
