the hostname pissing contest is way old. i fall on the liberal side. e.g. in this case, some poor end user stuck an underscore in their config. i just can't expect them to be well-versed in hostname arcana. to the best of my memory, that HELO check was just to catch when there is no fqdn. and, for your daily pedantic amusement, in pure dns, foo.bar.com might reall be "foo.bar," a single lhs name, in the com domain. dns is 8-bit clean, with segments having lenth, not being dot delimited. so dots can be in name segments. randy -- ## List details at http://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
