No. It clearly says a CNAME is not allowed for EHLO. You quote it just a few lines above. We are talking mainly EHLO here. > So we find it is actually not only *not* contained with RFC2821 > any requirement that the HELO/EHLO argument resolve to/match the client IP, > but we find an explicit prohibition on refusing a transaction because of > the lack of match. On the contrary. That's exactly what it asks for. The key for understanding the requirements here is "client identity". If we rewrite it this way: > So we find it is actually not only *not* contained with RFC2821 > any requirement that the HELO/EHLO argument match the reverse DNS record, > but we find an explicit prohibition on refusing a transaction because of > the lack of match. it makes sense. I don't know if you wanted to say this. Kai -- Kai Schätzl, Berlin, Germany Get your web at Conactive Internet Services: http://www.conactive.com
