Need some info on the what the large email severs ie Yahoo and Hotmail
use to determine if email is spam. I run a small email server with
about 30 clients and when i send email to yahoo it gets bounced to the
bulk mail folder like in my maillog below.

Read somewhere that they do a reverse lookup on your ip address for a
host name.
here is my info for reverse lookup for the ip 209.115.173.22
Non-authoritative answer: 22.173.115.209.in-addr.arpa name =
mail1.computerking.ca. Authoritative answers can be found from:
173.115.209.in-addr.arpa nameserver = toad.spots.ab.ca.
173.115.209.in-addr.arpa nameserver = cheetah.spots.ab.ca.
toad.spots.ab.ca internet address = 209.115.174.3 cheetah.spots.ab.ca
internet address = 209.115.174.2
looking forward for computerking.ca

Does it have something to do with the fact that my ISP is running the NS
for reverse lookup and my own nameservers take care of things for
forward lookups. Should i see if i can run my own nameservers for
reverse lookup as well. What is it that yahoo does not like about my setup.
please someone help me i do not know what could be wrong and have
switched ISP's to try and solve this problem but so far it has not worked.
