Hi, I've just started using qmail and friendson our (newly upgraded) live Linux x86 server after mauling the var-qmail-<NN>-src.rpm comprehensively on the offline tester and applying a selection of the published patches (anti-uce, aol fix, etc) via the rpm spec and then allowing the var-qmail process to continue. (Seemed the most sensible way to proceed). Apart from some teething problems with permissions, it all seems to be working okay, relay-control is working via pop3d apop authentication and procmail has integrated well. All seems fine except for persistent delivery rejections of outgoing (and, I'm told, incoming) email for some specific hosts. I haven't yet seen a copy of the incoming rejection but the outgoing rejection reads: "Hi. This is the qmail-send program at bel-epa.com. I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses. This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out. [...] Remote host said: 550 rejected: cannot route to sender <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" The string "cannot route to sender" does turn up in search of the qmail list archives but I can't see the relevance of that discussion (dial-up user) to the problem I'm seeing, nor can I find anything specific in the man pages or FAQ (hurry up with that O'Reilly book, guys), Given that qmail on the qmail-list server is happy to receive/send email to me at this allegedly problematic address, I presume it's some clash of anti-UCE measures, some DNS issue or something malconfigured in my qmail setup. Has anyone seen this before? Can anyone suggest a starting point for my investigations. What information should I be providing to avert the wrath of the hovering gurus?
