\"\"<\/p>\n

I was working a good client yesterday for a different problem when we tried also to figure out why they couldn’t send email over POP or IMAP from outlook through GoDaddy hosted email for their domain.<\/p>\n

They could receive email just fine but 99 times out of 100 they couldn’t send email and would get a 552 error “Message rejected for spam or virus content”. GoDaddy puts the blame on the person’s machine\/network\/router. \u00a0The problem here is that even with a different machine on a different network the same error occurs.<\/p>\n

This is a widespread problem for MANY users and it is caused by GoDaddy flagging your domain\/email as spam. But overall they do not seem to care or want to fix it. POP and IMAP work fine from her iPhone … just not outlook.<\/p>\n

This problem is not also inherent to Outlook. Others report problems with other mail clients as well.<\/p>\n

What should you do?<\/p>\n

\n

Stop using GoDaddy email and move to a better provider.<\/p>\n

My number 1 suggestion is Google Apps. You can still use outlook if you want but I would suggest using Google Apps Premier for full Outlook integration.<\/p>\n

My number 2 suggestion is Office365 hosted exchange.
