Various preceding comments included: >Yet the mail server that responds to "pecandeluxe.com" has an IP address >(207.155.252.78) which does not match that list.

And it's not in the MX list. This is reasonable, and unrelated to the original problem. When you telnet to pecandeluxe.com:25, you're going to get pecandeluxe.com:25, and not any server(s) on the MX list. When manually simulating a SMTP connection, you must manually obtain the MX list and telnet to port 25 on one of the servers on that list, preferably to the one with the first ranked priority (in this case, bigbrother.pecandeluxe.com). ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
