Hi sysadmins, Bruno here has trouble sending mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] His ISP is rejecting bounces, and mx10 rejects it in turn.
I don't know what you are willing to do: get the ISP to change its smtp policies, or remove that rule from mx10. On the other hand, Bruno apparently did receive a bounce, so maybe the bounce-acceptance test can be improved? -- Sylvain ----- Forwarded message from Bruno Haible <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----- To: Bruno Haible <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: Bruno Haible <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de; rv:1.8.0.1) Gecko/20060124 Firefox/1.5.0.1 Date: Sat, 17 Mar 2007 02:30:56 +0000 Cc: Subject: [Savannah-help-public] [sr #105803] mail server doesn't forward mails from Strato URL: <http://savannah.gnu.org/support/?105803> Summary: mail server doesn't forward mails from Strato Project: Savannah Administration Submitted by: haible Submitted on: Samstag 17.03.2007 um 03:30 Category: Mail server Priority: 5 - Normal Severity: 5 - Blocker Status: None Assigned to: None Originator Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating System: None Open/Closed: Open Discussion Lock: Any _______________________________________________________ Details: Hi, This worked yesterday, but does not work today: I have my mail account at Strato (one of the two largest German providers, who hosts millions of email accounts).
