Re: [Declude.JunkMail] SMTP_DELIV_FAILED

2007-10-09 Thread Kevin Rogers
We're not using any Windows-based NAT service that I'm aware of - we're 
just using the NAT capabilities of our humble Linksys BEFSX41 router.  
Which is how we had the old server setup (192.168.0.3).  And so I just 
switched the Port Forwarding to the new server (192.168.0.4) and kept 
the rest the same.  The old server didn't have the Routing and Remote 
Access service running at all (which is the service for setting up 
Windows-based NAT, right?)  And the new one has that disabled as well.


Seems like there's something really simple that I've completely 
forgotten to do and hopefully you guys will clue in on it.

When your server is connecting to the recipient's server, it fails to 
establish a connection with that server.  This log line indicates the 
likely source of the problem:


   10:08 20:18 SMTP-(f30001890106) [x] using source IP for 
Rogersbenefit.com [192.168.0.4]


While you might be doing NAT on your network, it doesn't appear that 
this is the case here, and the failure is probably being caused by 
your server thinking that it needs to send E-mail for 
rogersbenefit.com from a private IP, and it is unable to make a 
connection since that IP isn't routable across the Internet, and you 
are either not NATing and IMail is misconfigured for this domain, or 
your NATing is not set up properly.


You need to check the configuration for this domain and make sure that 
it is bound to a public IP or if a virtual domain, that the server's 
primary domain is bound to a public IP address...or if you are NATing, 
you need to check this configuration in your router.  I suppose that 
IMail might be screwy, but you should start with those choices.


Note that your first log sample shows that you were properly resolving 
the recipient's MX records, and at least in my test from a second ago, 
their primary MX server is answering just fine.

Your router may NAT the old IP (192.168.0.3) to a public IP address,
but it may not NAT the new IP (192.168.0.4) to a public IP address.

Can you disable the old box and change the new box to use the old IP
(192.168.0.3) or verify in your router that the new IP (...4) is
properly NAT'ed to a public IP address?
