• [FreeBSD-Announce] FreeBSD.org outgoing mail system changes

    From Peter Wemm@21:1/5 to All on Tue Aug 13 05:48:35 2019
    Due to circumstances beyond our control, we need to change the outgoing SMTP server address for FreeBSD.org email. We are aware that there are going to be challenges due to SMTP sender reputation systems.

    At present, email is sent from:
    mx2.freebsd.org 8.8.178.116 2001:1900:2254:206a::19:2

    It will be changing to:
    mx2.freebsd.org 96.47.72.81 2610:1c1:1:606c::19:2

    These addresses have been listed in our SPF records for some time. We have planned to make this change for a while but external circumstances have forced accelleration of the change. We must begin rolling out these changes over the next ~24 hours.

    We anticipate that there will be a period of time of frequent false-positive spam detection with hosted mail providers. If you find that your FreeBSD email has gone missing on a hosted mail service, it would be prudent to check your spam folders. This is likely to require some training to stabilize.

    We apologize for the inconvenience.
