Unable to receive mail from outlook servers

[imol-ai]

Describe the bug

Whenever somebody from microsoft outlook (doesn't matter if it's company, or private email) tries to send me a message, the message delivery fails. Funnily enough, I can send mail no problem to outlook addresses. Any other host can send my maddy server messages without a single problem, I have tried at least twenty.

Steps to reproduce

Send a message from an outlook address to the maddy server.

I also tried with:

SMTP config:

smtp tcp://${pub_ipv4}:25 tcp://[${pub_ipv6}]:25 {
	debug true # only for the logs
	io_debug true
	limits {
		all rate 20 1s
		all concurrency 10
	}
	max_message_size 64M
	check {
		require_mx_record
		require_tls { fail_action quarantine }
		dkim
		spf
		rspamd {
			api_path redacted

	}
	dmarc yes
	source $(local_domains) {
		reject 501 5.1.8 "Use Submission for outgoing SMTP"
	}
	default_source {
		destination postmaster $(local_domains) {
			deliver_to &local_routing
		}
		default_destination {
			reject 550 5.1.1 "User doesn't exist"
		}
	}
}

And I also tried this with the whole check block, and dmarc commented out.

Environment information

• maddy version: 0.7.1 linux/amd64 go1.22.6

fyi, a workaround may be to disable tls session tickets, see https://github.com/mjl-/mox/issues/237 for details.

Hi @foxcpp, could you take a look at this if you have a minute? It is quite a burning problem.

[vsenko]

The problem is widespread, we encounter it too.

[vsenko]

A temporary solution is to disable TLS 1.3:

protocols tls1.0 tls1.2

As long as maddy defaults are to allow TLS 1.0 - 1.3, and TLS 1.2 is still not deprecated, it looks not that bad.

fc179fc with workaround applies. Can someone confirm that it indeed fixes the issue?

Also works here.
