Question
Outlook.com not receiving emails sent from my Digital Ocean droplet
Hello all,
I am running Ubuntu 14.04, my mail server is dovecot 2.2.9 and postfix 2.11.0 is the mail transport agent.
I am having an issue where the mail server successfully sends email notifications to the likes of gmail and yahoo but we fail to get any mails to outlook.com email addresses.
We have checked for being blacklisted, which we are not. I have seen other posts with similar issues but no one coming back saying that they have sorted this issue. Surely someone has setup a DO mail server that can send mails to an outlook address. Any help greatly appreciated.
Many thanks

Are you the emails are not going to spam or being blacklisted all together. This can happen when sending emails from a mail server. Something like this might help http://www.extendoffice.com/documents/outlook/1129-outlook-add-safe-senders-list.html
Thanks for the response. I have checked a number of blacklist sites and the domaib and ip address have no problems. We are finding that it does not matter if we send an email from automation on the box or by a client like thunderbird sending emails, neither land to the outlook.com address.
The only time where it has worked is when the outlook.com address has instigated the initial mail and i have responded to it… this is no good to us.
