Temat: [Exim] Question on verification
Can someone explain to me what address verification feature (or some
other feature) in Exim would cause an error like the following?
[root@webhost root]# telnet mail.sourceforge.net 25
Trying 66.35.250.206...
Connected to mail.sourceforge.net.
Escape character is '^]'.

221 sc8-sf-mx2.sourceforge.net closing connection

This system (linux.jf.intel.com) does NOT have an A record in DNS.
But it does have a valid MX record in DNS.
So why would Exim block this? This is a valid configuration to have and
as far as I know does not violate any RFCs.
Thanks,
John
