I did some verbose sendmail test sends earlier this morning. The hostname of the box I was testing isn't a FQDN (well, the domain is, but the hostname itself isn't). I used sendmail without the -f (From:) flag set, so my from address was something like [EMAIL PROTECTED]
My observation is that it seems like some mailservers don't verify if host.ceruleansoftware.com exists at all, and simply accepts the message I sent. Some does, and it gives me an error message: >>> MAIL from:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> SIZE=80 501 5.1.8 Sender domain must exist getmxrr(ceruleansoftware.com., droplocalhost=1) My question now is, how does one enable this "domain verification" feature in QMail, if ever there's one?
