Description Robert Meyer 2019-03-01 10:50:52 UTC
When a mail is received from microsoft, office365 or hotmail, the senders ip address changes with every retry, resulting in mails never being delivered. To fix, I added the following to /etc/postfix/postgrey_whitelist_clients:
protection.outlook.com

Have you submitted a bug upstream?
Comment 2 Kim B. Sindalsen 2019-10-05 15:05:19 UTC
protection.oulook.com it provided in the postgrey_whitelist_clients available at http://postgrey.schweikert.ch/pub/ (should/could the ebuild include a cron-job that update this file from http://postgrey.schweikert.ch/pub/ ?)

We now have 1.37_p20190625-r1 which contains upstream improvements here.

# grep "outlook" postgrey_whitelist_clients
# 2015-07-23: outlook.com (github #20)
outlook.com
outbound.protection.outlook.com
protection.outlook.de

Is this enough or do you directly need protection.outlook.com?
Comment 4 Robert Meyer 2020-12-22 16:07:01 UTC
I would say, this is enough.
