We have a user who discovered that he, and we, can't send email to one particular domain.
All messages come back as undeliverable due to unknown users. Moreover, the header always comes back as the postmaster from our domain not the domain in question. We've checked to see if there is an issue with us having a host alias set up as the domain in question, we've been through our dns to check to see if there are problems there, and we've even checked the support at the domain itself to see if they're having problems on their end. Bottom line: We can send email to the problem domain from anywhere else except our Imail system. And it just seems to be this one domain that's the issue. Has anyone ever seen this issue? If so, what was the solution (if any). Thanks. b -----Original Message----- From: Clay Larson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, November 27, 2002 5:42 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] Alias Limitations??? Sorry, a 255 character limit, not 256. I guess that includes the spaces in-between each name. Again, there is a separate field for each virtual domain, as in: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipswitch\IMail\Domains\$virtual003\Aliases and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipswitch\IMail\Domains\$virtual004\Aliases Here is the documentation quote (which I think you already read): "Host Aliases Specify alternate host names for which you want the host to accept mail. For example, if the mail host name is mail.domain2.com, you can set an alias of domain2.com so that IMail Server accepts mail addressed to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and also [EMAIL PROTECTED] Multiple aliases are separated by a space. This field is limited to 255 characters." my bad: >There is a 256 character limit for each virtual host's domain alias >field, which is stored in the registry. -----Original Message----- From: Bud [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, November 27, 2002 16:16 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [IMail Forum] Alias Limitations??? Hi all. Is there a limit to the number of aliases that can be under a single virtual host, or on the IMail server itself? -- Bud Schneehagen - Tropical Web Creations _/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/ ColdFusion Solutions / eCommerce Development [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.twcreations.com/ 954.721.3452 To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/ To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
