I don't think (b) is the reason as in this case, the MTA would accept the connect and the start of the SMTP transaction as it wouldn't know it was a 'relay' until 'RCPT'. In any case, this appears to be an issue with Postfix configuration on '123.456.789.6'. What happens if you telnet 123.456.789.6 25 from your Mailman box? -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
