Marc, It appears that you're using postmaster@localhost as your sender address. That's really not good.
You need to have a resolvable email address as your sender address - that means you should have something like [EMAIL PROTECTED] , where there is an MX record for company.com that points to your server. That's certainly the cause of the 504. Not sure if that's also the cause of the 450s - the server name used in Helo is not the same (and shouldn't need to be complete). --Peter > -----Original Message----- > From: Marc Chamberlin [mailto:marcc@;easystreet.com] > Sent: Wednesday, November 06, 2002 10:17 PM > To: james-user > Subject: list server failing > > Hi > I am running a list server on James, (james-2.1a1-2002-09-24) and a number > of emails are being rejected from destination servers > with either one of the two following messages - > > Remote mail server told me: 504 <Postmaster@localhost>: Sender address > rejected: need fully-qualified address > > or > > Remote mail server told me: 450 <Darkstar>: Helo command rejected: Host > not found > ; > nested exception is: > javax.mail.SendFailedException: 450 <Darkstar>: Helo command rejected: > Host not found > ; > nested exception is: > javax.mail.SendFailedException: 450 <Darkstar>: Helo command rejected: > Host not found > > > Anyone got any ideas?
