How do I setup AVG Antispam remote filtering service on my hosting account? I changed the MX to remote and put in the proper MX records for AVG. I'm still getting email bounced back when I try to send to them. Bounce below: This is an SMTP server at antispam.avgcloud.net Your message could not be delivered to the following address: (Unified Log Code: 1334992212, 0001) from to Connected to mail.lebanonva.net:144.208.79.224 but recipient was rejected.

Hello hillhouse, Thank you for your question about using your AVG Anti-Spam filtering service. It appears that you will need to add the IP 208.70.208.146 as a permitted relay. According to AVG's Frequently Asked Questions PDF, you need to log into AVG AntiSpam, click Customers > Permitted Relay > New Entry, and then add the domain or IP. Gratefully, Casey B.
