Have you had dns lookup problems? This is a temporary error and the client should retry delivery


    450 4.7.1 Client host rejected: cannot find your hostname,
[108.163.243.188]:
    retry timeout exceeded

the original message was sent on the 15th. the return bounce on the 19th. I haven't rebooted or restarted services on that machine and all of the included lookups for this mail message were performed on the same machine this morning.

i just sent myself a test message from the client's system. Here is what I got. I immediately ran the lookups using dig. postfix can't seem to resolve things properly. Running Ubuntu Server 14.04 LTS with ispconfig installed. I'm using powerdns with powerdns recursor. resolv.conf points to the localhost's external ip address. This is sort of annoying. I really don't want to open up the server's to misconfigured system as that increases the amount of spam dramatically.
