I'm OK with the 2nd bounce. But I got such a messageafter the first
bounce:
Your message
Subject: Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender
was not delivered to:
HOSTNAME/DOMAIN/TLD@???
because:
User HOSTNAME/DOMAIN/TLD (HOSTNAME/DOMAIN/TLD@???) not
listed in public Name & Address Book
Reporting-MTA: dns;smtp.domain.tld
Final-Recipient: rfc822;HOSTNAME/DOMAIN/TLD@???
Action: failed
Status: 5.1.1
Diagnostic-Code: X-Notes; User HOSTNAME/DOMAIN/TLD
(HOSTNAME/DOMAIN/TLD@???) not listed in public Name &
Address Book
How do I know that message sent from HOSTNAME/DOMAIN/TLD@??? is
an error message?
Thus this is a _really bad_ server configuration IMHO.
