Are they not on the same physical box?

Hi Martin,

Thanks for your response.

Unfortunately, I'm unable to have common mx servers. My clients have to have
'isolation' from one another and insist that all their 'servers' are within
their own namespace / IP range.  This means that I have to have inbound SMTP
servers (mx) within the same domain as everything else and that the IPs used
for the servers resolve in both directions. This in turn means, of course,
that the IPs have to be dedicated to purpose. The knock on effect is that I
have to have the SMTP greeting banner for a given IP address match the
domain to which it is associated in order to comply fully with the RFCs and
best practice.

Thanks for your suggestion though, in most other cases I would completely
agree,

Fin

Well, it is perfectly ok to have the same FQDN listed as MX for several
domains. the MX's FQDN does not have to be of the same domain.
So, you could greet everyone with the same, valid, FQDN and never worry
about the other stuff?

Hi Tony,

This would be true for a single domain, however my setup is more like that
below:

127.0.1.1       mail.domina1.com
127.0.1.2       smtp.domain2.co.uk
127.0.8.30      mail.domain30.net
127.0.8.90      mail.domain90.com
127.2.1.112     mx1.domain112.org

Obviously, I've obfuscated the real addresses and domains but the layout
above is representative.

Thanks again Tony,

Fin

My first reply does not seem to have arrive so I will try again...

If I understand your question it should be as easy as
editing the smtpgreeting file to reflect the rDNS value.

ie edit /var/qmail.control/smtpgreeting to
mail.domain.com

This happens because you smtp service is listening on all ip addresses.
If
you want to send separate greeting message
individual domains you'll have to configure multiples instances of smtp
services for all the domains on your server. I am
not an expert but this my own understanding, I could be wrong.

Hi Everyone,

I was wondering if any list member would be able to help.

I have a number of domains, on separate IP addresses but whenever a
server
connects to the server it receives the same
SMTP greeting:

220 *cpa2.localdomain* - Welcome to Qmail Toaster Ver. 1.3 SMTP Server
ESMTP
Whereas the hostname should only be the one which reverse resolves in DNS
i.e. mail.domain.com
Does anyone know how I would go about enabling this compliance with
RFC821
4.3 and RFC2821 4.3.1
Any help will be gratefully received,

Fin
