yeah, logs are pretty much as they were before
smtp-failure log:

I've tried running qrunner, but it doesn't show anything further.

Oddly, I did receive some messages today, but the errors come, and it took
days for them to get through. I sent another test through and got the same
sorts of log messages. I know it's not the MX this time.

puzzling.
I don't the possibility that I've forgotten something mindboggling simple,
but I've been running various mailman setups in similar format for past
5+ years and this is the first time I've encountered this.

nevermind. I figured it out with some help from ethereal. The virtual
server I had purchased lacked an /etc/hosts entry for localhost at
127.0.0.1 and qrunner didn't like that. I added that in and all appears
to be fixed.

Strange message in smtp-failure though..

   They don't have any advertised mail servers.  When you ask their
 nameservers for MX records, you get this:

   Repeat this process, asking their advertised nameservers

adding MX did not help. still same error when qrunner runs.

And, I should have noticed this before. I have another server running
potato (mostly) with 2.0.13 and no issues (even though the source domain
has no MX).

Very odd..

running strace it does appear that it errors after several DNS look ups
(port 53) but prior to attempting a connection to port 25 anyplace.
