No, his PTR record looks right: [Pooserville:~] bubbadv% nslookup -type=mx mythtech.net Non-authoritative answer: mythtech.net mail exchanger = 30 bmx.mythtech.net. mythtech.net mail exchanger = 10 mail.mythtech.net. mail.mythtech.net internet address = 68.165.138.76 bmx.mythtech.net internet address = 64.81.198.38 [Pooserville:~] bubbadv% ptr 68.165.138.76 Non-authoritative answer: 76.138.165.68.in-addr.arpa name = mail.mythtech.net. I think the problem is one I encountered (which led to much joy on my CGPro server) where the HELO must match the PTR must match the forward lookup. Changing the main SIMS domain will work, but will have unpleasant cosmetic side effects (for instance, an autoreply from <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> will instead come from <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. Just remember if you change the domain to add a router entry along the lines mythtech.net = mail.mythtech.net -- Dave Pooser Cat-Herder-in-Chief Pooserville.com "This administration cannot be trusted to govern if it cannot be counted on to think and, having thought, to have second thoughts."-- George Will 5/4/04 ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
