Having a problem with one that I noticed this morning:

Mar  1 09:24:14 gumby kwoody[4549]: postfix/smtpd[7343]: reject: RCPT from
freelists-180.iquest.net[206.53.239.180]: 450 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Sender
address rejected: Domain not found; from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Dig freelists.org =

freelists.org.          23h53m44s IN A  206.53.239.180

;; AUTHORITY SECTION:
freelists.org.          2d23h53m44s IN NS  a.ns.freelists.org.

;; ADDITIONAL SECTION:
a.ns.freelists.org.     2d23h53m44s IN A  206.53.239.179
-----
dig -x 206.53.239.180

; ANSWER SECTION:
180.239.53.206.in-addr.arpa.  23h55m22s IN PTR  freelists-180.iquest.net.

Ok so they dont match so this looks to be valid mail I added:

iquest.net       OK
freelists.org    OK
<IP of iquest.net>  OK

rebuilt access.

Still mail gets refused. Failing with a 450 so it will be retried.

So I just try a dig on the mailserver (the above dig was done on our
primary NS) and I get a timeout on our primary MX:

dig freelists.org

; <<>> DiG 8.3 <<>> freelists.org
;; res options: init recurs defnam dnsrch
;; res_nsend to server default -- 0.0.0.0: Operation timed out

??

so as a test I added our NS to resolv.conf and still the mailserver cannot
find freelists.org.

So go to our 2ndary MX:

; ANSWER SECTION:
freelists.org.          3m20s IN A      206.53.239.180

;; AUTHORITY SECTION:
freelists.org.          3m20s IN NS     makes.magick.org.
freelists.org.          3m20s IN NS     god.magick.org.

;; ADDITIONAL SECTION:
makes.magick.org.       3m20s IN A      206.53.239.178
god.magick.org.         3m20s IN A      12.109.75.48
; Total query time: 165 msec
;; FROM: tuck.citytel.net to SERVER: default -- 0.0.0.0
;; WHEN: Sat Mar  1 09:36:05 2003
;; MSG SIZE  sent: 31  rcvd: 124

It finds it ok but I get completel different results for the auth
section?? Just tried again on the 2ndary MX and it now returns the same
info as a dig done our primary NS.

A whois shows the domain is valid, though with different AUTH servers.

Anything that I might look at here to get this mail to be accepted?

I cant find a reason why our primary MX cant find freelists.org, yet our
primary NS and the secondary MX can?

What could be missing here?
