Found the following posted by a member – Thanks! My hosting is with bluehost. They use proxies and so say I CAN NOT do a reverse. Bummer. Is there any other way to get this working? Thanks in advance for any help.
For all of you who have been searching for hours or days trying to figure out why the Aweber integration is not working through S2Member I”ve found a solution that worked for me. Might save you a lot of trouble.
Call your hosting provider (mine is HostGator) and request that they add a “Reverse DNS record, PTR, or pointer record” to your hosting account.
If you are seeing that when you run the “bcc” test that they suggest here and all is looking good meaning the “add” email is being generated by the S2Member system but Aweber is not adding your contacts to your list this is probably your problem. Basically without this “Reverse DNS record, PTR, or pointer record” your “add” emails will be blocked as spam by Aweber and names will not be added to your list.
I attached a screenshot of the info I still need. Is there an article somewhere that explains all this. I’d be happy to read it but can’t find it. I understand there is an article somewhere.

Shawn, that’s great! Thanks so much for the tip!
I’ll be updating the article in a moment, and notifying other users about this too.
Very appreciated that you shared that after finding it! :)
I believe I have the s2member set up correctly to integrate with Aweber. I have the parser set up and tested and it looks good. but no subscribers are being added to my aweber email list although I have had multiple new registrants on my website via s2menber since setting this up. so they should be placed into my aweber list bit are not.
I am not sure what to do or where to go from here.
thanks,
Don
