Hi Group, I have recently migrated my mail servers from Linux to OpenBSD (will be almost a month by now). Everything has been nice since then :)
But I have faced a strange problem ( almost three such instances by now) , wonder if anyone else also has experienced it. The mails that are sent from mail servers running on MailEnable never reach us. The MailEnable software just generates a "Message has been delayed" mail and sends it to the sender. I had searched my Spamd database for any "GREY" entries, but nothing was found. Then I did a MX lookup for the sender's domain and searched the IP of the mail server in the daemon logs. It just shows ip address x.x.x.x connected ip address x.x.x.x disconnected after x secs. There is no Mail from - Rcpt to dialog. Then I whitelist the ip manually and mails starts coming through. Further, I had on one of my servers kept p0f running. Here is the output for one such Mail Enable host. --- <somedate.......> x.x.x.x:3778 - Windows -> myserverip:25 (distance 5, link: ethernet/modem) ---- Is there any thing we can do for these poor people ;) (Sorry please do not flame me for this) Googling does show a lot of threads with similar prob but no soultion. Thanx & Regards Ram
