aol mail bouncing

2000-07-06 Thread Matt Taft

Helo,
  I have just recently switched from sendmail to qmail for our ISP and got 
everything working using qm 1.03 memphis, tcprules, vpopmail, big-dns.patch, 
bind.patch. Sending, Recieving, POPing Mail all seemed to be working ok.

  Then I found all mail from AOL and certain other asp's was bouncing most 
mail recieves fine and all mail sends ok but mail from aol is recieved then 
bounced usually for no such mail account at my mail server however obviously 
this mail account does exist and recieves mail fine from all other 
locations. And the second twist is if I send a mail to an aol member and 
they utilize reply it is recieved at my mail server with no problem but if 
they type a new mail and utilize the exact same address it bounces. lol

Is there anything about AOL or any of AOL's IP addresses in your
tcpserver setup (especially the database that tcpserver uses to block
connections and set environment variables)?

And do you see anything in your logs about these messages?

You should supply some more information:

- the receiver address
- content of your /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts file
- content of your /var/qmail/control/locals or virtualdomains file
- possibly users/assign
- relevant log file entries
