Hi,
 

I have "CheckMailerDomain"     "1"  in server.tab.

 

I have not received some important emails from Yahoo because of this.  The
sender address does not have a valid A record, but it does have a MX-record.
In my opinion, it should not be blocking these messages.  I'm running v1.22.

 

The docs states:

[CheckMailerDomain] 

Enable validation of the sender domain ('MAIL FROM:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>') by 
looking up
DNS/MX entries.

And yes, my DNS servers are up and running just fine.

 

What is the rule for CheckMailerDomain to cause this to be blocked?

 

Thanks.

 

-Don
