If the server is handing out its hostname, then it's fine. You just need to set a proper hostname (fully-qualified and one that exists in DNS). Also, FYI, Norton anti-virus gateways need to be sandwiched between two regular servers. They can not handle MUAs or Internet MTAs on either side. This is one of the major reasons we switched off our Norton filtering solution a couple years ago. > I pointed out to him that it does indeed break RFC1123... we'll see how it > goes from there. If he's blocking because the domain you're sending *isn't fully qualified*, he's fine. You're broken. If he's blocking because the domain you're sending *doesn't resolve*, he's fine. You're broken. If he's blocking because the domain you're sending *doesn't resolve to the IP address of your machine*, he's broken.
