<[^[:space:]]+>: (Sender|Recipient) address rejected: so it seems that it should be <[^[:space:]]*>: (Sender|Recipient) address rejected: However it's not clear to me why the sender address is being rejected, as <> is not only valid but required to be allowed for bounces. I note that postfix is using <> when I do: "mail from:>" but not giving the "server unavailable" message (instead apparently treating it as the null originator). Can you confirm that DNS on the logcheck/postfix machine(s) is working? _______________________________________________ Logcheck-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/logcheck-devel
