Remote Server returned '550 5.7.501 Access denied, spam abuse detected.

Anyone else receiving "Remote Server returned '550 5.7.501 Access denied, spam abuse detected." when attempting to send from @<O365subdomain>.onmicrosoft.com?

 

Found various discussions that mention MS Engineers 'delisting' domain to resolve the issue?

Yes, this is something usual when sending from onmicrosoft.com and when the originating IP is from specific network classes.

 

You can send from a vanity domain, or send from another network that is not blacklisted, or you can open a service request to Microsoft Support and give them a complete NDR.

Thanks Victor.

 

Attempting to send from https://outlook.office.com so assuming no way of affecting/changing the originating IP network classes etc?

 

Will try applying custom domain (vanity domain) to O365 tenancy and try resending.

(Failing that, service request to Microsoft Support as suggested)

 

Thanks

Changing the primary SMTP to a vanity domain will solve this issue for sure 🙂

When sending from the onmicrosoft.com domain the cause of the NDR is most likely not that "The sending account has been banned due to detected spam activity."

 

As I said before, sending from the onmicrosoft.com domain is blocked when the originating IP is part of specific IP classes as a measure of preventing spammers to create free trial tenants and sending spam using them 🙂

@Anthony Obi 

I am getting same error whenever I send any mail to any one (Inside the group or outside the group).

Please help me.
