First of all, I just an email (and got it on tx.technion.ac.il) from my postfix, which is on an adsl connected computer, with a static IP and *without* back resolving to the hostname I am using. I believe it is a (temporary ?) problem inside the technion: A few months ago there were a couple of days in which mails which went the very same path got delayed, upto a couple of hours. I sniffed around the technion and found out they were doing some changes. Afterwards, I managed to send emails to the technion without back resolving, as i do today. -- Orna. | http://tx.technion.ac.il/~agmon A cat has claws at the end of its paws.
