Ok, a lot of my clients forward their mail from their domains to their hotmail/gmail/etc addresses (they do not use catch-all by the way)..... However, recently I'm seeing a lot of emails being blocked by the addresses they forward to (hotmail/gmail/etc), even when emails are generated within their accounts by scripts....
I know there's a lot of talk about forwarders being dangerous. However, has anyone else encountered similar issues? Do (forward) emails bypass any checks, eg. DKIM, Spam Assassin, etc, because it's outgoing email?
On another note, recently Microsoft blocked our MTA IP due to spam being sent to non-existing addresses due to, what I guess, automated sign-ups from Wordpress. Which is a pain.
