Hi, list
My log is getting quite a few of
Failed to retrieve helo string
immediately followed by
Disabling route
interestingly, I don't see the same behaviour on another smtpd host I
have... now I am even more puzzled
started to think that this had to be something with my local setup, and
thanks to Crystal, who suggested running smtpd with -d and -T transfer,
I went furhter and did a run with -T all, which revealed that smtpd
could not retrieve helo string from a helo-src table, where I had spaces
around the equal sign...
so it was not helo string from remote server, but helo string from
helo-src table.
now spaces around = are removed, and I think "helo string" errors are
gone. let's see!
feeling silly now -- sorry for all the noise!
