I don't have an update on that yet but I will let you know when I do.   Regards,   Howie ----- Original Message ----- From: Chris Jenkins To: inFusion Support List Sent: Friday, April 16, 2004 11:57 AM Subject: RE: [iMS] Bounce Processing Howie, Any updates available  on my original issue of tokens not being evaluated when an MX lookup fails?  You had indicated that you�d get the engineers to do some testing this week.     From: Howie Hamlin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, April 16, 2004 11:46 AM To: inFusion Support List Subject: Re: [iMS] Bounce Processing   When the POST Server sends mail the remote server will either accept or reject the mail (or, reject it temporarily).  If the remote server rejects the mail then this is considered a delivery failure and you could perform processing in the ReportPostStatus template if needed.  If the remote server accepts the mail and then rejects it the sender will usually receive an email to notify them of this rejection - this is a bounce.   Mail server responses are detailed in RFC 2821: http://www.imc.org/rfc2821   DNS names can match the NETBIOS names but they are really separate things and it doesn't matter if they match or not (of course, AD on a Windows server kind of blurs the distinction a bit).  The most important thing is that your email server has a valid reverse DNS and that the HELO from the server matches this.   HTH,   Howie ----- Original Message ----- From: DGo 754-234-4158 To: inFusion Support List Sent: Friday, April 16, 2004 11:27 AM Subject: Re: [iMS] Bounce Processing   What is the difference between a bounce and a failure? Is there a list of codes somewhere? Like 550 "unknown" ?  Is anyone using DNS running on the same machine as IMS ?  Does the DNS name have to use the NetBIOS name ?   Regards, This list server is Powered by iMS "The Swiss Army Knife of Mail Servers" This list is provided as a free service.
