Hi,

Last weekend one of our service provider for our application upgraded there 
email server (Apache JAMES). And now, there telling us that the ORCPT variable 
is not supported.

or mail bounces with this error:

Sep 15 00:35:40 devsys-prod-com-mta01 postfix/smtp[23429]: D01B34127C: 
to=u...@provider.com, relay=10.254.254.10[10.254.254.10]:25, conn_use=11, 
delay=43, delays=40/3.5/0.11/0.08, dsn=5.0.0, status=bounced (host 
10.254.254.10[10.254.254.10] said: 504 Unrecognized or unsupported option: 
ORCPT (in reply to RCPT TO command))


(10.254.254.10 is there internal mail server and we use a VPN to send directly, 
there email server is not available on direct internet links)

I telneted to there server and tried to send commands and sure enough, it 
rejected the RCPT TO where there was a ORCPT variable 

here is what I did:

MAIL FROM:<u...@email.com> RET=HDRS ENVID=QQ314159
250 2.1.0 Sender <u...@email.com> OK
RCPT TO:<u...@email.com> NOTIFY=SUCCESS,DELAY ORCPT=rfc822;u...@email.com     
<--- this doesn’t work
504 Unrecognized or unsupported option: ORCPT
RCPT TO:<<u...@email.com>> NOTIFY=SUCCESS,DELAY  <--- this worked without the 
ORCPT.
250 2.1.5 Recipient <<u...@email.com>> OK

I also tried to send a test email with postfix’s ‘sendmail’ command and got the 
same error in the log file.

My question is, Can i strip that variable before relaying the mail to the 
provider’s server ?

Thank you for any help on this.
