Kind of ironic this being sent to a qmail list.

Hope Wilson isn't a mail administrator somewhere.

Re: long delays when sending mail

2001-06-20 Thread Jon Booth

The Linux box needs to be able to do reverse lookups on the windows IP
addresses. Trap for new players of which I am one.

Re: Long connect times

2001-06-14 Thread Jon Booth

OK I have set up reverse DNS and it works great. 
The reason I was hesitant to set it up was I was using my ISPs DNS to
resolve not my local but I am now forwarding from my local to theirs

That would make sense. How can I stop it from doing reverse lookups? Its
not practical from me to set up reverse DNS for these internal IPs.

Long connect times

2001-06-14 Thread Jon Booth

Hi all,
I am using QMail with xinetd. It takes ages for a PC internally (allowed
to relay) to connect to the server. Outside servers can connect instantly. 
Where should I look to diagnose this problem

Thanks for any help

Hi All

I am getting strange bounces. Qmail seems to append "" to the end of the
domain (see below)

Anyone know why?

Any help greatly appreciated

Hi. This is the qmail-send program at mail.lucidlogic.com.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following
addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.
