Hi,
We recently setup a droplet with DigitalOcean and installed cPanel, LiteSpeed, Redis and a bunch of other softwares.
We did all of the following:
The only emails our droplet sends are:
I’ve check the emails from the websites with mail-tester.com and they score a perfect 10/10 with the only improvement possible being “Add a List-Unsubscribe header” of which is to be expected because it was a single email that wasn’t part of a subscription.
I’ve checked the server IP against various blacklists and the IP is listed on a few because DO has had a lot of abuse on its network so the entire AS is “limited”
However when I check IP’s around my IP on the likes of talosintelligence.com especially:

What am I supposed to do here to allow cPanel/Websites to send a few basic emails without them being blocked. I can’t use a Floating IP because you can’t setup a PTR for them…
I don’t want to have to try and move the droplet to another country especially when DigitalOcean doesn’t have a “Migrate droplet to different zone” feature.

Hi,
I’ve not received anything back from DigitalOcean or any of the lists that have the IP blocked so as a quick fix I am wanting to fix it by using an external mailer.
For one of our other services we use Mailgun with a dedicated IP however my attempt to setup Mailgun for cPanel/WHM didn’t work.
The trace report showed:
I assume this is because wordpresswebsite.com isn’t the same as the cPanel/WHM?
How do I setup relaying with Mailgun? If not possible, what other providers can I use that I don’t have to authenticate every single domain with them?
Would I have to setup a cPanel mail node to achieve this?
Thanks
