Hello, I am using mxtoolbox.com to run an SMTP test against my domain which is running James mail server and its responding with the hostname, instead of the domain name - here is the error, how do you set the SMTP banner in Windows Server 2003 running James ? -- error :
Reverse DNS FAILED! This is a problem. Warning - Reverse DNS does not match SMTP Banner HELO please-read-policy.mxtoolbox.com250 Springserver Hello please-read-policy.mxtoolbox.com (64.20.227.133 [64.20.227.133]) [62 ms]MAIL FROM: <[email protected]>250 2.1.0 Sender <[email protected]> OK [62 ms]RCPT TO: <[email protected]>530 5.7.1 Authentication Required [62 ms]QUIT221 2.0.0 Springserver Service closing transmission channel [62 ms] How is this set in James - in Windows SMTP, you set what is called a "masquerade domain" so these reverse dns lookups dont fail. I looked at the config file for James and changed this with no luck: <!-- Set the HELO/EHLO name to use when connectiong to remote SMTP-Server --> <!-- <mail.smtp.localhost>xyz.com</mail.smtp.localhost> --> and <handler> <!-- This is the name used by the server to identify itself in the RemoteManager --> <!-- protocol. If autodetect is TRUE, the server will discover its --> <!-- own host name and use that in the protocol. If discovery fails, --> <!-- the value of 'localhost' is used. If autodetect is FALSE, James --> <!-- will use the specified value. --> <helloName autodetect="true">xyz.com</helloName>
