Is the server that is having the issues using djbdns or BIND? There was a thread on June 21 that discussed the differences in the way djbdns handles CNAMES and EDNS, vs the way BIND does, and why it causes delivery issues for qmail. -Chris On Wed, Nov 29, 2017 at 9:02 PM, Eric Broch

I'll see if I can have a patched version for separate download out tomorrow. It's interesting that I never see these errors on my servers. How often do you see them, and is mail not delivered? On 11/29/2017 9:24 PM, Jeff Koch wrote: Hi Eric: I read the link you provided and agree with the
