Hi All,

Up until a few months ago the ISP of the network in question was happy to 
accept and relay messages from my server <myserver.mydomain.com> which runs 
nagios.  My server gets its IP address from the ISP in question dynamically 
so I use DynDNS to map the subdomain.domain name to it.

To be able to relay messages I of course have set up sendmail to authenticate 
using email_acco...@isp.com/passwd_on_ISP.

When the ISP stopped accepting messages I started getting this error message:
================================================================

-----The following addresses had permanent fatal errors-----
<email_acco...@isp.com>
  (reason: 550 5.1.0 <nag...@myserver.mydomain.com> sender rejected : invalid 
sender domain)

-----Transcript of session follows -----
... while talking to smtp.ISP.com:
>>> MAIL From:<nag...@myserver.mydomain.com> SIZE=745 AUTH=<>
<<< 550 5.1.0 <nag...@myserver.mydomain.com> sender rejected : invalid sender
domain
554 5.0.0 Service unavailable
================================================================

Does this fail because the ISP's reverse DNS on my dynamically allocated IP 
address resolves to an ISP domain instead of myserver.mydomain.com?

Is there something I could change in the configuration of my server to make 
this work again?
