There appears to be a problem in MAPS processing.

When the MAPS server name can be resolved, but the server is unreachable, 
the lookup should fail. However, what I've experienced is that when it 
fails, it blocks the incoming connection rather than allowing it.

For instance, the following log entry, from this afternoon:

"karen.arisiasoft.com"  "arisiasoft.com"        "209.119.0.109" "2003-08-26 
14:23:43"       "cherry.ease.lsoft.com" "" 
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]"     ""      ""      "SNDRIP=EIPMAP 
(relays.osirusoft.com)" ""      "0"     "cherry.ease.lsoft.com"

C:\Documents and Settings\tracy>ping relays.osirusoft.com

relays.osirusoft.com is unreachable - but XMail is still marking the 
incoming connection as EIPMAP. And of course, this particular address is 
only one of many that was so marked before I caught the problem. It was 
even failing my local server, which I know is not listed anywhere...

Any insight or advice (other than taking out the failing map, which I've done)?
