On W2K sp4 Using 1.25pre09 WITH smartdnshost for some spool files I have this error, but it seems that in all cases (but not sure ...), second "auto" rsnd retry go to the destination without problems (so it's not a real problem if second try is ok, but it's strange ...)
================================================ [PeekTime] 1178704474 : Wed, 9 May 2007 11:54:34 +0200 << ErrCode = -117 ErrString = DNS recursion not available SMAIL SMTP-Send EDNS = "hp.com" SMTP = "mx.groupeab.com" From = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" To = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" Failed ! SMTP-Error = "DNS recursion not available" SMTP-Server = "hp.com" >> ================================================ I verified the 'smartdnshost' dns server for the "recursive" option, it is ok, recursion is enabled (it is a internal server that internal stations use as they dns server too and no problem with dns lookup from any of them ...) Manual MX lookup on the 'smartdnshost' for hp.com domain gives : ================================================ hp.com MX preference = 30, mail exchanger = smtpx.hp.com hp.com MX preference = 10, mail exchanger = smtp.hp.com smtpx.hp.com internet address = 15.81.168.21 smtpx.hp.com internet address = 15.81.176.20 smtpx.hp.com internet address = 15.81.176.21 smtpx.hp.com internet address = 15.45.89.154 smtpx.hp.com internet address = 15.45.89.155 smtpx.hp.com internet address = 15.45.89.156 smtpx.hp.com internet address = 15.45.89.157 smtpx.hp.com internet address = 15.81.168.20 ================================================ Same result when doing the lookup from the xmail server configured to use this dns server as the resolver on tcp/ip stack. Mail was "auto" rsnd on second try to the MX pref 10 smtp.hp.com. I had this spool error for some other destination domains too. Could this be a dns 'timeout' on initial request from xmail ? then on second retry, the dns server have some 'cache' from previous request then can ask final dns servers quicker ? How can I have more info from xmail when doing dns requests without having to run a tcpdump (I don't know this specific error frequency so letting a tcpdump running is not easy ...)
