Re: [swinog] Anyone from Green here?
If the reverse mapping points to some valid A record, why do you need to change it? There aren't many applications that really depend on the reverse name - for most of the things it's enough that the reverse name is a valid one. - Original Message From: Per Jessen [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: swinog@lists.swinog.ch Sent: Thursday, September 11, 2008 11:29:04 AM Subject: Re: [swinog] Anyone from Green here?

Re: [swinog] Anyone from Green here?
well, I used to support customers which were running mail servers behind a broadband connection. Most spam filters and blacklists like SORBS check the reverse naming, and if it doesn't have words like cable, ppp, dynamic and such, it's quite safe to work with it. It just has to have some decent name, but the name shouldn't be necessarily customizable by the user. Anyway, who's going to send email directly from a broadband connection, instead of using the ISP's relay? :-) - Original Message From: Roman Hochuli [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 11, 2008 12:20:57 PM Subject: Re: [swinog] Anyone from Green here?

The customer is (quite reasonably) running a mailserver on it, and would like the reverse mapping to be set up properly. /Per Jessen, Herrliberg ___ swinog mailing list swinog@lists.swinog.ch http://lists.swinog.ch/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog
Re: [swinog] Anyone from Green here?
We had asked several time green.ch for a delegation for a MPS8 and MPS16 contract - and they denied it. So submitted a list of hosts to be added to their DNS for adding PTRs. No reply, and still only the default PTR entries... Has anything changed in this since the TIC merger? -Kurt. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Marc SCHAEFER Sent: Thursday, September 11, 2008 11:25 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [swinog] Anyone from Green here?

That may well be a reason why one might have to do it. Alternatively, one can of course get some fully managed solution but that's not what you might want if you do special magic or don't trust anyone or have whatever other legitimate reason.
