I see no issues in bounce info (like from MX or high spam score). Also same issue while sending reply from GMail mailbox.

I tries to ask a support in live chat but guy told me that as it is Free software the only option here is to ask a question on forum.

Does anybody know how can I contact this support team (downloadcompliance@sophos.com) to receive the license?

  • Hello Ivan Osipov,

    I'm not Sophos - just trying to help. Also I never had to use this downloadcompliance address so I can't say if it's supposed to work.

    Seems that you have quoted just (your) bounced mail (as it was received on the system that bounced it) but not the bounce message itself which should give at least a hint of a reason.

  • Hello Christian,

    Thank you for your reply!

     

    Well, I received it after trying to reply to previously received mail. I found that I also missed this error message at the beginning of this mail:

     

    downloadcompliance@sophos.com
    Remote Server returned '554 5.7.1 < #5.7.1 smtp;550 5.7.1 RESOLVER.RST.NotAuthorized; not authorized>'

     

    Also I found few more topics here with the same issues that other people faced. No helpful answer was been there.

  • Hello Ivan Osipov,

    I found few more topics here
    I see ... don't think it's deliberate, must be an internal problem (i.e. the recipient of the passed the required compliance checks mail not automatically being authorized to send to the downloadcompliance address - guess you've checked that you send to Reply-To: and not From: if both are present and different).
    Maybe or (both have lately been active in the XG forum) can look into this.

    Christian

  • I've reached out to our licensing team about the issue and will update you with further information once I receive the reply.

    Thanks for your patience,

  • Hi Ivan,

    Where did you download your Sophos Home XG? It does not require a license because it should sync automatically. Could you try to register again via this link: https://www.sophos.com/en-us/products/free-tools/sophos-xg-firewall-home-edition.aspx

    Thanks,
    Karlos

  • Hi Karlos,

    I downloaded XG Firewall OS Software ISO for Intel Hardware and installed it to VirtualBox. When XG ask me to Register it request the serial number (and tells that "Home users must use an XG Home Use serial number obtained from here").

    But I tried to request Home license again and received another email this time. But it does not include any serial number:

     

    Hello ,

    Good news! You’ve passed the compliance checks and can now download our software for the next 90 days.

    To access the software, please log into the MySophos portal (https://secure2.sophos.com/en-us/mysophos/login.aspx) and then proceed to the download pages.

    We’ve set up a FAQ page [link FAQ page to the relevant KBA] with a step by step guide to [whatever the FAQ guide is to]. If you have any issues, please contact us your Sophos reference number [#7738755].

    Regards,

    Sophos Support

     

    As you see there are even no correct links to FAQ and Guide - just placeholders from template. And I cannot ask them because I still receive bounce email when trying to reply. :(

  • Hi Ivan,

    What happens when you download the software from the MySophos portal instead? The license is automatic when you download the Sophos Home software.

    The XG software version that you have initially downloaded asks for a license as it is not the Home version it seems

    Thanks,
    Karlos

  • Dear Karlos,

    Thank you for your reply!

    It seems like I dont get where can I download Home version of XG.

    I tried this way - go to https://www.sophos.com/mysophos, then it redirects me to https://secure2.sophos.com/en-us/mysophos/my-account.aspx. In the left panel I have "Endpoint/Server Protection" and "Network Protection" options. Then I go to Network Protection and Download Installers. There are bunch of installers for Firewall OS and other software (iView and Firewall Manager). But I dont see any special Home software.

    There is also "Sophos Central and free products" link on main account page but it leads to portal with a different credentials and seems to be related to Endpoint software only.
