That didn't seem to do, apparently, I checked the correct functionality of our DNS and
so on.
Although in my log quote I used fake addresses those were just slightly changed. The
usual protect the innocent (not from the
regulars from this list, of course).
Actually I do remember obtaining one of those messages and log entries when I tried to
subscribe to this list. Which would mean that
q-mail smtp daemons do give this Remote_host_said:____ response.
Anyone has any pointers?
The weirdest thing is that we have another qmail installation in here that does not
receive any of those messages at all. Although I
could re-route all outgoing e-mail to it, I rather not as it is a customer system.
I am trying to figure out what is the reason for _our_ server to fail, rather than
just patch it using another one that works...
Yet again, thanks for your time.

Is your fqdn valid (known to the Internet)? I experienced the error when
experimenting with my first qmail installation using unknown fqdn and the
destination host did domain checking. I noticed usa.net and stupid.com were
some of such ones.
