But, just in case: a user of mine sent an email to (note the trailing question mark). XMail tried to deliver and failed for the following reason: ErrCode = -109 SMTP-Error = "Unable to get UDP DNS response" Since I don't think the address should have passed the syntax check, I googled a bit and found that the address is RFC5322 compliant (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5322#section-3.4.1) but contains domain characters that are not allowed by DNS. Section 3.4.1 says that Note: A liberal syntax for the domain portion of addr-spec is given here. However, the domain portion contains addressing information specified by and used in other protocols (e.g., [RFC1034], [RFC1035], [RFC1123], [RFC5321]). It is therefore incumbent upon implementations to conform to the syntax of addresses for the context in which they are used. So, I think in general XMail should not accept such addresses (and, more generally, the reference for syntax check should be RFC5321 more than RFC5322). Final note: this may be my last message on the list; my server will close in a few days, and that will be the end of my (very good) experience with XMail. I leave the suggestion to anybody willing to keep XMail alive.

Re: [xmail] Feature request: counterpart to spam-address.tab (ie. awhitelist)
Hi, You could use SMTP.HNPROP.TAB or create a simple IN filter to acomplish this feature.
