Hi, I think you may have answered my question on why emails to gmail have been failing. I get the same symptoms of 20/09/11 21:18:52 INFO James.Mailet: RemoteDelivery: Attempting delivery of Mail1316546231564-61-to-gmail.com to host gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com. at 209.85.229.26 for addresses [[email protected]] 20/09/11 21:19:24 INFO James.Mailet: RemoteDelivery: Exception delivering message (Mail1316546231564-61-to-gmail.com) - [EOF] 20/09/11 21:19:24 INFO James.Mailet: RemoteDelivery: Temporary exception delivering mail (Mail1316546231564-61-to-gmail.com: 20/09/11 21:19:24 INFO James.Mailet: RemoteDelivery: Storing message Mail1316546231564-61-to-gmail.com into outgoing after 0 retries
1. How did you capture the traffic on the Interface? Did you need to use wireshark? 2. If we force James to bind on one IP and ensure that IP has a reverse DNS lookup, then when it connects to another mail server it has to use that IP. Is this what you did?

I captured the traffic on the interface and found this: "554 imta14.westchester.pa.mail.comcast.net comcast 174.48.my.ip Comcast requires that all mail servers must have a PTR record with a valid Reverse DNS entry. Currently your mail server does not fill that requirement. For more information, refer to: http://help.comcast.net/content/faq/PTR"; It would be good if the log entries contained more of the reject message. -Andrew --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
