Re: now this is something.
What could be the cause of this ? I am the mail admin and i not even touched it in the last month and any why its not filtering any of the incoming messages. maybe it related with dns ?

We had DNS problems yesterday because of a faulty NIC in tango.tcltek.co.il. The problem lasted from about 15:00 until 22:30 yesterday. The secondaries should have worked fine though.

All the replies to the above question seemed to focus on why exactly his messages bounced for two days. But the fact is that it is quite normal for mail hosts to go down (or worse, come up with a bad configuration) for two days. Of course, big companies keep backup servers, redundant network connections, secondary mail exchanges and all kinds of tricks to keep such an embaracing thing from happening but small sites often can't afford it, or don't know how to do it. So the mailing list managers must be less "trigger-happy", and not remove people with bouncing addresses until, say, 2 weeks have passed. Even errors like "user not known" are not "final" - it can simply mean, for example, that the mailserver's disks got trashed, and the OS was reinstalled and brought online but not all backups were brought back (this shouldn't be done, of course, but it nevertheless happens). This is what I do on the mailing lists I run. P.S. from my experience, "we do not relay" bounces usually happen when the machine is down, and a secondary mail-exchange was set up for it without that other machine's administrator being notified of this. For example, a Netvision customer may assume that he can put "mx10.netvision.net.il" as a secondary mail exchange, but this is not true without talking to Netvision's admins first. -- Nadav Har'El|Thursday, Jul 27 2000, 24 Tammuz 5760 [EMAIL PROTECTED] |- Phone: +972-53-245868, ICQ 13349191 |Hardware, n.: The parts of a computer http://nadav.harel.org.il |system that can be kicked. = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
