Hi,
I am getting a few mails being 'temporarily rejected' but without
apparent reason. Is there any way I can find out why?
Reject log:
2004-08-29 04:46:47 H=dp.samba.org (lists.samba.org) [66.70.73.150]
F=<samba-bounces+ruth=ivimey.org@???> temporarily rejected
RCPT <ruth@???>
2004-09-02 14:16:23 H=wireless2.ivimey.org (Robinton) [192.168.0.9]
F=<Ruth.Ivimey-Cook@???> temporarily rejected RCPT
<hugh@???>
In the latter case this was a message sent from my domain (me) to an
address that is aliased to an external address. What makes it irritating
is that Outlook treats such rejections as permanent errors :-(
