when i send mail from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] it creates a seperate thread and connects to the primary MX record for the sending domain, which is mailgw.nmgi.com. it sends a mail from: <> rcpt to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] in which my mail gateway was rejecting... that thread would exit > 0 and I get a 550 telling me I dont follow rfc822.. ########################## Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.

Please contact your system administrator. <exchange.nmgi.com #5.5.0 smtp;550-Response from mailgw.nmgi.com [64.217.128.174] was "555 sorry, your envelope recipient is in my badrcptto list (#5.7.1)" when checking for existence of a postmaster mailbox. RFC 822 section 6.3 (which you have to abide by if you send and receive Email) states that you are required to have a postmaster mailbox that is routed to the person responsible for mail (http://www.rfc822.com/). We need to be able to contact you at the postmaster address to resolve potential problems if need be before we can accept your mail. Please create a postmaster account at your site> ########################## that's how they do it... they use Exim which I dont, so I'm not aware of if thats a function of exim or a patch to it. i dont know of any patches to qmail that implement this "feature?". dallas ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: INetU Attention Web Developers & Consultants: Become An INetU Hosting Partner.
