Bounced emails in MTA?

Hi,

I'm using our Sophos XG210 as spam protection for around a week now, coming from Sophos Central email protection.

Everything works fine except for a few bounce mails. These emails are bouncing but I don't really know why, I haven't really found a way to dig any deeper too. I've already whitelisted the domains+IP's of the senders but they still get bounced.

Does anyone have a suggestion for me?

  • Hey  

    I would suggest taking a look at your awarrenmta.log on the CLI of your XG to find out more information regarding these bounces.

    Here's the KB to help you out.

      Waiting for the output of the logs now after I receive new mails that bounce back.

          The Exchange server bounced the emails back to the Sophos, it was in the content filtering of the Exchange server.
