Follow-up Comment #28, sr #106478 (project administration): I couldn't understand whether they acknowledge the problem but are unable to fix it or they claim that it is gnu.org's fault?
This is definitely a problem of your service -- please tell them to try the session with mx.pittle.org at comment #23. The response of the server to the RCPT command should be a 2xx code, and not 5xx like this: 550 5.1.1 Host 213.91.219.2 error: B1.1.1 Just for the sake of completeness, here are truncated sessions to Debian, FSFE, Microsoft, BIMCO and Karl Berry's server -- they all use different software, but are configured properly and are standards compliant. lists.gnu.org is performing a legitimate check which fails due to a problem at your end. I am not sure what else can we do to convince them -- perhaps it would be much easier to setup a gnu.org account for you as Turkish team co-ordinator :-) $ telnet master.debian.org 25 220 master.debian.org ESMTP Exim 4.63 Mon, 08 Sep 2008 12:37:11 +0000 rcpt to: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 250 Accepted $ telnet cavendish.fsfeurope.org 25 220 cavendish.fsfeurope.org ESMTP Postfix (Debian/GNU) rcpt to: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 250 2.1.5 Ok $ telnet mail.global.frontbridge.com 25 220 mail35-wa4.bigfish.com ESMTP Postfix EGGS and Butter rcpt to: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 250 Ok (Wow!
