Davide, I just did a dnsreport on my domain, and it spat out he following warning:
<dnsreport output> WARN: Mail server host name in greeting WARNING: One or more of your mailservers is claiming to be a host other than what it really is (the SMTP greeting should be a 3-digit code, followed by a space or a dash, then the host name). This probably won't cause any harm, but is a technical violation of RFC821 4.3 (and RFC2821 4.3.1). Note that the hostname given in the SMTP greeting should have an A record pointing back to the same server. mars.bigeagle.com.au claims to be non-existent host <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: 220 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [XMail 1.20 ESMTP Server] service ready; Mon, 9 May 2005 14:45:29 +1000 </dnsreport output> Now I assume it is complaining about: 220 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Not saying something like: 220 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I have an A record for [EMAIL PROTECTED] Can you explain: 1. did I misunderstand something?, if so, what? 2. if not, then why does Xmail appear to violate RFC821 4.3 and RFC2821 4.3.1 (according to dnsreport) Thanks, Rob :-) _________________________________________________ Signature: Live like you'll die tomorrow!
