I can reproduce this at will. I ran my DNS server with logging temporarily and saw the request for an 'A' record for returns.bulk.yahoo.com, no MX request was done.
I moved my dnscache directory and created a new one, restarted XMail and I still get ENODNS for these emails. I don't see an entry in the dnscache under MX for returns.bulk.yahoo.com, just a yahoo.com file. Why would that be? -Don -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Davide Libenzi Sent: Friday, April 06, 2007 5:44 PM To: xmail@xmailserver.org Subject: [xmail] Re: ENODNS Error On Fri, 6 Apr 2007, Don Drake wrote: > Hi, > > I have "CheckMailerDomain" "1" in server.tab. > > I have not received some important emails from Yahoo because of this.

XMail could not find MX records, and A record was not present. Very likely some problem with your network, because if someone can accuse XMail of not being able to fetch the MXs, the A record quesry is done by using the system DNS API. - Davide - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
