--------------------------------------------------------------------- View the issue: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-282 Here is an overview of the issue: --------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JAMES-282 Summary: Mail not correctly deliverd after DNS time-out on From: address Type: Bug Status: Unassigned Priority: Major Project: James Components: DNSServer SMTPServer Versions: 2.2.0RC2 2.2.0RC3 2.1.3 Assignee: Reporter: Hes Siemelink Created: Mon, 10 May 2004 6:46 AM Updated: Mon, 10 May 2004 6:46 AM Environment: Windows 2000 Description: Some emails keep hanging in my sendmail queue. When they are delivered through James I receive a crippled version (no subject, no body) and an error is sent back to Sendmail that the message could not be delivered. The message keeps hanging in the queue and blocks delivery of all messages that are behind it. We can accurately reproduce the problem by filling in an address in the 'From' header that can not be resolved by DNS. This problem might by hard to reproduce and I apologise for the lengthy description that follows. I don't know what's going on exactly but I think it would be best to give you plenty of information. I will try to give an accurate description of the situation. The email I try to send is: From: "Tom" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Hes Siemelink" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: TEST unkown From Date: Tue, 2 Mar 2004 12:46:05 +0100 Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi Hes, Thanks for the info. Tom The domain 'xxxxx.org' can not be found in the DNS: [EMAIL PROTECTED] hes]$ dig xxxxx.org ; <<>> DiG 9.2.1 <<>> xxxxx.org ;; global options: printcmd ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached If I change the domain in the from address to [EMAIL PROTECTED], delivery is fine. In a test run, the message is first sent to our Sendmail server. Sendmail attempts to deliver it to the recipient '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'. Here is a transcript of what happens then: Forcing the attempted delivery of mail with the command /usr/lib/sendmail -v -q -C/etc/sendmail.cf .. Running /var/spool/mqueue/i4AD2YUS018252 (sequence 1 of 123) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>... Connecting to extra3.izecom.com. via esmtp... 220 izecom-martijn SMTP Server (JAMES SMTP Server 2.2.0RC3) ready Mon, 10 May 2004 15:15:53 +0200 (CEST) >>> EHLO zloty.izecom.com 250 izecom-martijn Hello zloty.izecom.com (192.168.0.1 [192.168.0.1]) >>> MAIL From:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 250 Sender <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> OK >>> RCPT To:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 250 Recipient <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> OK >>> DATA 354 Ok Send data ending with <CRLF>.<CRLF> xxxxx.org: Name server timeout >>> . <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>... Deferred Running /var/spool/mqueue/i4ACdNUS018002 (sequence 2 of 123) [EMAIL PROTECTED] Deferred: Connection reset by extra3.izecom.com. Running /var/spool/mqueue/i4ACaYUS017978 (sequence 3 of 123) [EMAIL PROTECTED] Deferred: Connection reset by extra3.izecom.com. ... etc ... Note that the 123 messages are never delivered. In the James logs I can see the delivery of the first message was succesful. 10/05/04 15:23:44 INFO smtpserver : Successfully spooled mail Mail1084195424201-17 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] for [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/05/04 15:23:44 INFO James.Mailet : RemoteDelivery: Attempting delivery of Mail1084195424201-17 to host 192.168.0.18 at 192.168.0.18 to addresses [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/05/04 15:23:44 INFO James.Mailet : RemoteDelivery: Mail (Mail1084195424201-17) sent successfully to 192.168.0.18 at 192.168.0.18 The James server in this case functions as a relay. Mail is delivered to an Exchange server (running at 192.168.0.18). The (reconstructed) email that is received is: Received: from izecom-martijn ([192.168.0.18]) by izecom-martijn.exchange.izecom.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC(5.0.2195.6713); Mon, 10 May 2004 15:23:44 +0200 Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Received: from 192.168.0.1 ([192.168.0.1]) by izecom-martijn (JAMES SMTP Server 2.2.0RC3) with SMTP ID 385 for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Mon, 10 May 2004 15:23:44 +0200 (CEST) Date: Mon, 10 May 2004 15:23:44 +0200 (CEST) From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Bcc: Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> X-OriginalArrivalTime: 10 May 2004 13:23:44.0295 (UTC) FILETIME=[0490F370:01C43692] So... other points of interest: * There is similar behavior with James 2.1.3. In stead of "Deferred" the SMTP response of james is I/O error. * The problem does not occur if I talk to directly to James. It is only in combination with Sendmail. * The problem does not occur id I talk to directly to Exchange. * Mailets/Matchers in use: ToProcessor, RemoteAddrInNetwork, RemoteAddrNotInNetwork, RecipientIsLocal, HostIsLocal and two custom Mailets: Log and ChangeRecipientDomain And one question: why does the value of the From field matter? Please help! Thanks Hes. --------------------------------------------------------------------- JIRA INFORMATION: This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
