Based on the information provided, there could be several reasons why emails from Starlink are not being delivered to your domains (stat-mail.com and webmail-navi.com) while emails from other providers are arriving successfully.
Here are some potential causes and troubleshooting steps:
-
Greylisting: Your mail server might be implementing greylisting, which temporarily rejects emails from unknown sending mail servers. This is a common anti-spam measure. Amazon SES would typically retry these messages, and they might be delivered on subsequent attempts. If this is the case, there might be a delay rather than a permanent failure.
-
Spam filtering: Your domains might have specific spam filters that are catching Starlink emails. Check your spam/junk folders and any spam filtering rules you have in place.
-
Sender reputation issues: There might be reputation issues with the specific IP addresses or domains that Starlink is using to send emails through AWS SES.
-
Return-Path and From address mismatch: If Starlink's email configuration has a mismatch between the Return-Path and From address domains, this could cause delivery problems as some email systems may send bounces to the From address instead of the Return-Path.
To resolve this issue:
-
Check your mail server's logs for any rejected messages from Starlink or AWS SES IP addresses.
-
Review any spam filtering rules that might be specifically affecting Starlink emails.
-
If you're using a third-party email service for your domains, contact their support to check if there are any blocks on AWS SES or Starlink-related IPs.
-
Consider temporarily whitelisting Starlink's sending addresses in your email system to test if that resolves the issue.
If you have a paid AWS Support Plan, you could open a technical support case with AWS, providing specific examples of the emails that aren't being delivered, including any message IDs or request IDs if available.

Additional details:
Some emails are successfully delivered, but some never arrive at all.
For the addresses where delivery fails, there are no entries in the hosting provider’s mail logs — the messages are not even reaching the server.
I also tried changing the hosting provider, but the issue remained exactly the same.
