Just a simple question. Is Imail 6.04 Mapi compliant?
Thanks

Subject: [IMail Forum] reverse lookup and virtual hosts
Point of clarification:
As i understand it, the ptr record can return the host for an ip. If it
returns the wrong host then folks who do reverse lookups will reject your
email.
If this is correct, can you have virtual ipless mail hosts from a practical
standpoint? (won't they all yield a mismatch on the reverse lookup?). Or do
you add cname records for each. Or do you just add ptr records for each?
Both? None?
Also, my upstream dsl provider has my ip addresses listed to them in a
reverse lookup. They sort of know that this is a problem, cause when i asked
about the hemmed and hawed and said yes, we did this temportarily, bla bla
bla.
So another question, is, is it enough to have them add a ptr record to refer
to my name servers to get the mail to work correctly, or must they add every
virtual mail host (seems unreasonable)
Any help appreciated. A bit muddled here in Chicago
Jeff
