Sometimes the smtp greeting will give an indication, when you telnet
into it. Of course, their outbound server isn't necessarily the same
host as the one accepting inbound connections. The bigger the domain,
the more likely these will be different.
Forgot to mention that I tried
This one was barely under your spam_hits value of 8. I'd lower that
value. Like I mentioned, I use 5.8.
The user_prefs.cf file will only be effective if it's in
/home/vpopmail/.spamassassin/. I can't tell what ~/ is.
It appears you don't have spamdyke installed. Otherwise, this would have

Hi all,
I run mail for 5 or 6 domains on my server. I have a few questions
regarding multi-domain hosting
1. What is the appropriate entry for the /var/qmail/control/me file
which I believe controls how qmail identifies itself for SMTP HELO/EHLO.
2. What should the PTR record for my IP
Kelly:
Absolutely fine for mail.example.com (DNS and PTR agree) to serve as
mail server for multiple domains.
Only real issues arise when you want to use SSL -- either pay out the
nose for a generic cert, or have all domains connect to your
mail.example.com server and buy just the one

Sorry about the hijack Eric. Won't do that again. One last question. Should
the MX records for the other domains indicate the hostname that is in the me
file or should they be a record for a host in their own domain that maps to my
server ip? Ie should I have 5 domains all with identical MX

MX records must point to a type A record, which may belong to any
domain. Here's an example:
$ host shubes.net
shubes.net has address 65.101.54.95
shubes.net mail is handled by 20 datamatters.us.
shubes.net mail is handled by 10 shubes.net.

I came across a list entry the other day (a linked-in list I believe),
where a mail admin said he set up a dummy MX entry as the highest
priority MX for his domain as an anti-spam measure. I'm not sure I'd
want to cause that sort of overhead to all the well behaved mail servers
out there in
Dear List,
Sorry to keep obsessing about this but I’m unable to receive the confirmation
from Twitter. It just never reaches me and there’s nothing on the logs from my
main and backup MX:
On my main QMT server:
[root@iki qmail]# grep -ir conf...@twitter.com /var/log/qmail/*
[root@iki qmail]#
