Is that true? I've not experienced it, in several years.

It might not be obvious *why* one's server was rejected - and need

Right, but it might be obvious *whether* my mail has been rejected.


..there is that, of course ...

But blaming .. or excusing .. a specific trigger FOR such rejection,
relies all too much on the 'rejector' providing specific and accurate
rejection message detail.

Hardly assured, that. Even if you are looking.

I am 'cc:' ing you primarily so that I can check my own logs...

.. having done so, confirmed that a unique-ID-specific ([email protected]) sender verification callout back to my server is honoured at once.

Aside from needlessly spawning an extra child process at each end to handle an extra smtp (partial) session, not a problem for your server OR tahini (or for me either, of course).

No 'delay =' is imposed so long as the creds of the server making the callout are clean and the recipient is valid .. and the caller's HELO verifies ...

While a HELO mismatch is a non-fatal error here, the delay imposed can send-off those both impatient and careless.

QED.

Or time-out a sender_verify callout..

..which was not its objective.

'..Law of unintended consequences' at work, masking the issue under discussion.

One does wonder, however, if a similar side-effect could be a contributing factor to the OP's '...failing sometimes'.

All it would take is a delay closer to his own wait time for a response, plus the odd link/resource delay. Or NOT.

Policy otherwise not a factor.
