I'm having trouble chasing down the source of an error message that I'm
getting. There are two domains behind a single firewall.
Company1.com - hosted on the qmail toaster.
and
Company2.com - hosted on an exchange 2003 server. But whose mail gets
passed through the qmail toaster with a simple entry in
/var/qmail/control/rcpthosts and /var/qmail/control/smtproutes.
company1.com can receive mail from any domain EXCEPT company2.com. BUT
company1.com can send to company2.com
When I attempt to send an email from [EMAIL PROTECTED]
<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (via outlook/exchange) to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I receive periodic error messages advising me
that sending is delayed.
After about a day, I get an undeliverable message that says:
"There was a SMTP communication problem with the recipient's email
server. Please contact your system administrator.
<company1.com #5.5.0 smtp;550-"The recipient cannot be verified.
Please check all recipients of this>"
There isn't anything in /var/log/qmail/smtp/current So, I tried to
telnet to the company1.com mail server hoping to see some other sort of
output.
When I telnet to mail.company1.com 25 (from anywhere) I get:
EHLO mydomain.com
250-Greetings from the company1.com mail server. Now Go Away! (my own
smtpgreeting)
250-STARTTLS
250-PIPELINING
250-8BITMIME
250-SIZE 419430400
250 AUTH LOGIN PLAIN CRAM-MD5
MAIL FROM [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
250 ok
RCPT TO [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
511 sorry, you must specify a domain <#5.1.1 - chkuser>
I'm completely stumped, though it's got to be something simple (user
error being most common).

Backing up, I finally notice the 511 error coming from chkuser.
(Of course it's not in any company1 queue if chkuser's rejecting it).
chkuser is apparently saying that the domain portion of the recipient's
address is missing. That doesn't seem to be the case though. See
http://www.interazioni.it/opensource/chkuser/documentation/faq/general.html
If that doesn't clarify things, try posting your problem to the chkuser list.
