It means that you don't have reverse DNS for the IP address.

If you set "RESOLVE_IP=no" in your IMAP section of your
dbmail.conf it will no longer try to look up the hostname
from the IP.

You could also set up reverse DNS for that ip.

Either way it won't really affect anything other than if you
want your logs to show the hostname connecting rather than
the IP address.

Subject: [Dbmail] Lookup failure


Hello!

I'm using a successfully working dbmail+postfix implementation, but I keep
receiving this message in my logs....

May 26 09:16:38 server1 dbmail/imap4d[5101]: PerformChildTask(): incoming
connection from [192.168.2.24 (Lookup failed)]

Do this means that something is not working properly or is an expected
message?

Thanks a lot,

Lorna.
