Just an example...

Do I know every MTA? my first SMTP capable mobile phones accepted only
IP adresses in format nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn, sorry I can't remember the brand
anymore.

Btw, if you do not receive my mail:

SMTP error from remote mailer after RCPT TO:<andy@???>:
host lyra.dyndns.org [217.237.102.138]:
 550-Verification failed for <eikemeier@???>
 550-Called:   62.138.193.82
 550-Sent:     RCPT TO:<eikemeier@???>
 550-Response: 550 Sorry, your host 217.237.102.138 is listed at dnsbl.njabl.org
 550 Sender verify failed



You *shouldn't* do callouts from a dialup (pD9ED668A.dip0.t-ipconnect.de), otherwise
you wont ever receive mail from an AOL user (or from us...)

Cheers
