And has recently been even doing the reverse lookups wrong frequently. Often enough that they seem to have a standard procedure for fixing it when you call them. Very nice phone help at the Email help line -- willing to help non-customers sending email to AOL and even pretty knowledgeable. > -----Original Message----- > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Robert Cates > Subject: RE: [exim] looking for spam in Exim log file - appended > > Well, probably not, since I don't know what/where/how to > setup rDNS. Do you have a few minutes...? You must find the owner of the IP addresses and get them to do it usually. Usually this is your ISP. It may be their NAP (network access provider or "ISP of the ISP"). In a few cases they may delegate this to your or the ordindary business customer but this is becoming less common, especially for a block of fixed addresses smaller than 256. The actual records are pretty easy to setup but depend a little on which DNS server you use (BIND, MS etc.) if you are doing it yourself. Many ISP's just do generic records.
