The logs tell the story. The mail may have been rejected by a different restriction, or you may have more than one reject_unknown_sender_domain. > or is it still related to the unresolvable > appl...@tank.sub1.domain.com host as I initially thought?

Without the new log entry, we have no way of telling why it was still rejected. -- Noel Jones
