--As of June 19, 2011 12:29:02 AM +0200, Christopher J. Ruwe is alleged to
have said:
(The server is a rented virtual machine.) Am I right that I need to set
the rDNS of 188.40.164.98 to mail.cruwe.de to make the freebsd.org
servers accept my mail or that, should I set the rDNS to cruwe.de, I
should make the mailer on mail.cruwe.de identify itself as cruwe.de
instead of mail.cruwe.de?
Anyway, thank you very much for your help,
--As for the rest, it is mine.
In postfix, the relevant setting is 'myhostname' in main.cf for the
hostname.
From my experience, it doesn't have to match the rDNS. It needs to match
the MX record. But, you should be able to see what they are saying as a
rejection notice from your logs.
