I'm currently running a mailserver that leaves the From: on the envelope as=
=20
netdaemon.scraemon.org. I have the From: on the message set to my FQDN,
scraemon.org. I do this so I know which host on my network sent the messag=
e,=20
while allowing all replies to come back to my FQDN. =20
I have been able to send e-mail to various addresses, this list included,=
=20
without any issues. However, I just received an error message when attempt=
ing=20
to send a message through Verizon's mail server. It stated that I wasn't=
=20
allowed to send mail. Is this caused by the domain listed in the From: on =
the=20
envelope not being able to be confirmed with a DNS? Could it be caused by
the fact that I currently have my MX set to scraemon.org, and not
netdaemon.scraemon.org?=20
% dig scraemon.org mx
ANSWER SECTION:
scraemon.org. 12H IN MX 5 scraemon.org.
Suggestions on what I should change?
Ian
