Gateway

Proposed
Excuse me.

I know that there are many other problems at the moment but I can only request this new feature again, among other things present in other mailservers that I manage

In the last few days, an anti-spam server that is part of siteground has started rejecting messages from my users

[2023.05.12] 11:21:30.065 [63572994] Initiating connection to 34.111.121.216
[2023.05.12] 11:21:30.065 [63572994] Connecting to 34.111.121.216:25 (Id: 3)
[2023.05.12] 11:21:30.065 [63572994] Connection to 34.111.121.216:25 from 10.60.0.20:59370 succeeded (Id: 3)
[2023.05.12] 11:21:30.862 [63572994] RSP: 451-Message rejected due to the low reputation of xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx at mail server
[2023.05.12] 11:21:30.862 [63572994] RSP: 451-instance-europe-west4-bkh2.prod.antispam.mailspamprotection.com. Try again
[2023.05.12] 11:21:30.862 [63572994] RSP: 451 later.

here is an example.

he tries it sometimes, on various servers and then
Remote Server returned: '601 Attempted to send the message to the following IPs: 34.149.79.66, 34.120.156.61, 34.111.121.216'


My server has high reputation on sendscore on cisco talos on cyren, it is not the list in any spam list
So the problem is not there, but in a listing by a specific provider


it relates to only one of my users and therefore I simply changed the exit gateway to that domain

But now I'm wondering why the only option for outbound gateways is either fixed or round robin

Why can't I tell it to use this other gateway if sending fails?
Why can't I set a rule that says if the recipient is @xxxx.xxxx use this gateway?

I know that many of you have large installations and already use a non-SM gateway and the rules are made there, but it seems to me that SM works well on its own and introducing some rules in the exit gateways seems very useful to me

I especially don't like round robin, I would prefer secondary gateway to use if primary send fails.

Its been reported by Gabriele as well.

in protocols

But I can't figure out how it works.
I believe it does not refer to the delivery of the single message

which then now I was doing some tests.
On my server I have two public ip to be able to deliver mail.
I can't find a way to rotate them.
I can only assign an exit ip to a domain, but not set up a rotation

I do not believe
[2023.05.12] 18:08:19.779 [63560114] CMD: EHLO smtp1.xxx.it
[2023.05.12] 18:08:19.857 [63560114] RSP: 250-mail.xxx.it Hello smtp1.xxxx.it [xx.xx.xx.198], pleased to meet you

I think it's better that EHLO is consistent with output ip and related rdns

It annoys me.
My server has a good reputation but now a provider like siteground quite common in europe decides it has a poor reputation.
less than 1% of emails are destined for a domain on siteground, and with SM at the moment I can't find a way to use a different output ip when destination smtp is xxxx or rotate ip's.
Should I then set all outgoing mail to the secondary ip? Giving up the reputation obtained with the primary ip.

Now it seems to have removed me from the list, and thus the problem is back. But I find it absurd not to have a way out in these situations
