There's a good chance the admin of the list server is allowing IPs listed in SPF records of some common domains like outlook.com to bypass greylisting. There's also a good chance that outlook.com have started using some new addresses without updating SPF. _______________________________________________ openssh-unix-dev mailing list openssh-unix-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.mindrot.org/mailman/listinfo/openssh-unix-dev
