Michelle,
Thanks for the info, I will read the manual on the
MAIL template again and see what it is doing.
Thanks for the help....
Dave

Logs
Hi Dave,
I forgot to mention - the logs you extracted
are actually showing that your server is returning a banned response to the
server trying to deliver the mail (which is probably a piece of spam since it
does not have a from address). It is not some other server banning your
server.
Unless you need it, you probably want to skip the MAIL template
as it is just adding unnecessary processing time to every piece of mail your
SMTP server is handling.
Ciao,
Michelle

Hi Dave,
You have your
SMTP server set to use the MAIL template. If you are using the default
template (that is you haven't changed it), it has a basic example in it of
how to block emails with no "from" address.
In addition, debug is on
for this template so the results of the processing are added to the log. If
you don't want to use this template then you can check the "skip MAIL
template" option in the configurator for the SMTP server.
If you want
to use it, I suggest you turn it off temporarily and read the manual on how
it works (I learnt this the hard way :-))) Then you can modify the
template (eg: turn of the debugging, change the rules for rejection etc) and
renable it.
The manual has a good explanation of how all the
templates work, what variables are involved and so forth. Well worth a read
just so you understand how it all fits
together.

The line that says "result=banned" looks to me like my
server is black listed, but the next line, " customresponse="555 Bad email
address"" looks to me like the email address is bad. Can someone
please explain what I am reading here?
Thanks,
Dave
