Update; looked at some backups of the ldaplistdb files and found that in some cases it contained entries like @domain that is, only the @ and the FQDN domain name but without the "address" part and such entries were referring to internal AND *external* domains; the latter caused the issue; as an example, one of the entries was "@microsoft.com" and this caused ASSP to reject ALL emails coming from MS with the "unknown local sender" message The problem now is to understand HOW those entries got into the ldaplistdb file; as a note I use BerkeleyDB for this file, in case this makes any difference After deleting the ldaplist*.* and updating ASSP (now running the .17) the problem went away, at least till now but I'm still monitoring the box to see if the issue resurfaces and I think that having a look at the ldap code to check if and how such entries got stored there may be due ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Gaining the trust of online customers is vital for the success of any company that requires sensitive data to be transmitted over the Web.
