mailer daemon

I use Exchange mail on my iPad and for almost 6 months have been unable to send email due to Mailer-Daemon. However, email sent to me is received. I have checked numerous times with various techies at my ISP. They say that because I can send email from their online webmail, it isn’t an ISP problem.


Please help!

iPad Air 2, iOS 12

Is shaw your ISP? Are you sending it from their (shaw) network? It sounds like your IP address is blacklisted. Mail.shaw.ca is rejecting your outgoing mail because of that. There is nothing wrong with the recipient email addresses. Are you sure absolutely you're accessing your mailbox over ActiveSync (Exchange)? Is there an option to type your username/password in the outgoing mail (SMTP) setting? Authenticating in the Outgoing (SMTP) normally resolves the problem but if the account type is Exchange/ActiveSync, there should be no SMTP settings.


If all else fails, submit a request to remove your IP address from the blacklist:

I doubt Cloudmark has anything to do with Apple. Here's what happens: shaw mail servers use Cloudmark antispam software or service. The software/service checks for the IP address that submits email to their servers to be mailed out (that's your IP address and you're the one submitting email to shaw mail servers to be mailed out to the recipients). If the IP has poor reputation, their servers drop or reject the email and send you a bounce mail notification. This normally happens when you use public WiFi or hotel internet connection. The IP address assigned to the hotel or public WiFi is normally on some sort of bad reputation database.


If this is your home or office internet connection, you can try submitting a request to remove the blacklisted IP address. Check the bounce mail for the IP address that has poor reputation. I can't guarantee they will remove it though.


We aren't blacklisted anywhere else, why are you blocking us?

Another possibility is that your IP address is blacklisted. That happened to me, after contacting my ISP, I was told to reset my modem/router which would automatically assign a new IP address. I did and it worked. Resetting is easy, unplug your modem for about 30 seconds, plug back into the wall, and wait until all the little indicators in front stop flashing and are solid. Reconnect to internet and try sending an email.

The server I use is mail.shaw.ca I only email a few friends and family and have checked/rechecked their email addresses. I have also deleter/reinstalled Exchange several times. I don’t think it is a spam issue.


Delivery to the following recipients failed permanently:


(email addresses removed)


Reason: Message from IP with poor CSI reputation. Original message Dropped.
