Re: [Nmh-workers] A € for your thoughts - should we fix UTF-8 subject output in scan for 1.5?

However, exmh doesn't :-( What release of exmh and nmh are you on, and what font are you using for the scan pane? exmh currently doesn't do very well if you have a utf-8 text but select a non utf-8 font.

Hi David, Date: Wed, 23 May 2012 05:50:36 -0700 (PDT) From: mailer-dae...@jad.dad.org (Mail Delivery System) Subject: Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender To: n...@dad.org Message-Id: 20120523125036.e2663124...@jad.dad.org This is the mail system at host jad.dad.org. That bounce is from jad.dad.org. It looks like you sent to your local machine instead of your ISP (smtp.tsoft.com?). Is his local SMTP server on jad not involved with passing it onto his ISP's smarthost then? I read it as the other party, mail.eipye.com, rejected it when jad tried to hand it over so the bounce email is from jad but it talked directly to the peer. Norm, it should probably be talking to your ISP's smarthost and then they talk to eipye on your behalf. The IP address jad appears to have as far as mail.eipye.com is concerned doesn't have a reverse DNS entry to map it back to a domain name, e.g. jad.dad.org. Even after adding one I'd still recommend using your ISP's smarthost as your IP address may be on spam blacklists from an earlier time or just because it's from the ISP's client pool. From jad you could do wget -qO- http://donk.c4l.co.uk/ip to show its IP address.

Norm, it should probably be talking to your ISP's smarthost and then they talk to eipye on your behalf. I think that Norm had configured nmh to send directly to his ISP's smtp server. For local mail, he overrides with send -server localhost or something equivalent. If that's right, my guess is that the override has run amok.

As others have mentioned ... you're submitting your email to the localhost MTA, instead of your ISP smarthost. I didn't remember the details of your original problem, so I looked it up here: http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/nmh-workers/2012-02/msg00198.html The conclusion of that thread was that you would send norm email to the localhost MTA (via -server localhost) and everything else would go to your ISP smarthost. That's what I do now. I only use 'send -server localhost', for messages addressed to plain 'norm' and nobody else. If I inadvertently attempt to use plain 'send' to send a message addressed to plain 'norm', I get an error message. All this had worked well, from February, sending many messages to mar...@eipye.com, with no bounces. Then, a few weeks ago, those message started bouncing. As far as I know, I've made no changes to my nmh environment, on the relevant computer, (which is not the computer from which this Email will come) since February.

I think you need to investigate (with the -snoop switch, most likely) as to what's really going on. The bounce email you get is clearly from your local machine. I wonder if his ISP has dished out a new IP address, e.g. after a power outage, and it's one that doesn't have a DNS PTR entry. Norm would be right, he has changed nothing, but his appearance on the Internet has changed.
