  • Publication number: 20070043813
    Abstract: A method and system for delivering electronic messages from a sender to a recipient over a communications network. The method includes receiving an email message verification request from a recipient mail server. Authorization of an email message is then verified, and the verification step includes generating a hostname using information in the email message transmission and querying a domain name server using the generated hostname. A verification result is transmitted to the recipient mail server. The verification result is valid when the generated hostname is successfully retrieved from the domain name server. The delivery system may be used to minimize, reduce, or eliminate the blocking or deletion of legitimate emails by spam filter applications.
