Hello, I'm a happy qmail user, except that we are beginning to have more and
more trouble connecting to people as they install new Exchange servers and
Virus walls. Whenever I try to send mail to one of the above, I get the "deferral:
Connected to ... but greeting failed" message in the log, and the user doesn't
get a warning until 7 days later. I don't know what's wrong with the newest
Exchange except the producer, but the virus-wall forwards the mail to a server
on the local network, which has no DNS address, which again gives me a
headache setting up "smtproutes". I've solved the problems with Exchange by
inserting the DNS name of the mailservers, but not all companies know what
their DNS name is. The virus-wall problem is not yet solved.
Does anyone know of a patch to work around the problem, or to make qmail
accept more shit? It doesn't help me much to explain that qmail follows the
rules and M$ doesn't when my users complain (then why don't you install
Exchange??? etc)
