I don't see the "host is dead" message in the logs anymore. In the report, I expected at least two things to pop up:
SMTP server accepts us, OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.18528 Check if Mailserver answer to VRFY and EXPN requests, OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.100072 (manual testing reveals that the server responds to EXPN) Since I don't see either of them, I suspect that it's not detecting the SMTP server or it's not running any SMTP specific tests... -- Deepak On Fri, Jul 25, 2014 at 10:45 AM, Brandon Perry <[email protected]> wrote: > So configuring the target to be considered alive resolved the issue? > > > On Fri, Jul 25, 2014 at 10:44 AM, deepak <[email protected]> wrote: > >> from command line, yes.
