No, it isn't valid:

>X-Note: Sent from [EMAIL PROTECTED]@mx.digical.com - 
>h-64-236-243-243.twi.com ([64.236.243.243]).

RFC821 doesn't say how to handle this -- the return address is 
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]@mx.digical.com", yet only 1 "@" is allowed 
in the address (technically, the part to the left of the "@" could have 
another one, if it was quoted, but that is rarely ever used).

There is an obscure routing method that is legal, and similar to this -- 
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]", where one mailserver would 
send it to mx.digical.com, which would then send it to 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]  However, you need a "%" in there for that 
to be valid.

[Declude.JunkMail] MAILFROM failing on "user@domain@host"

2002-09-26 Thread Bill B

Scott,

Mail from one of our users continuously fails the MAILFROM test, but I'm not sure that 
it should be failing.  The only funny thing this message has is the mail server 
hostname appended to the end of the address, but I thought that was valid.

Can you have a look?  Below are the message headers from the D*.SMD file and the 
contents of the Q*.SMD file, as well as the lines from the smtp logs...

OK, that might explain it.  It has happened several times in the last few
days; maybe they're making a some serious changes.

Thanks Scott.

I, too, got the same results as you from that server.

Declude will report the "Domain [domain] has no MX/A records" only if:

[1] The DNS server DOES respond, AND:
[2] It reports that either a "name error" (meaning that the name does not 
exist, OR
  It reports no error, but does not have any answers (MX records) listed.

I did notice that aircanada.ca has a very low default TTL of 1 hour, so it 
is very likely that they are in the process of making DNS/IP changes, and 
there was a temporary glitch.

The primary for Imail is our own dns server, 204.92.1.144.  I used the same
dns server to do my lookup in the original message.

What is the primary DNS server listed in the IMail SMTP settings?  It may 
be that the DNS server has corrupt entries for AIRCANADA.CA.

KITHRUP:RE: [Declude.JunkMail] mailfrom failing

2002-07-23 Thread Jim Rooth

You might make a myfilter.txt entry that gives a negative weight to that
particular domain.  I have a similar problem where  a client uses a
mainframe to send out txt messages.  It fails badheaders and REVDNS
constantly.  I gave it a -15 weight and now the messages go through from
that server.
