I'm stumped on this, so turning here.
Setup is exim on port 587 with ssl and plain/login authentication. (I
know, setup is far more complex in reality)
Problem is that my laptop is nolonger able to send email via this
connection. Using Apple Mail (OSX) on my laptop, it returns 421 local
error, and the mail isn't sent.
On the server side, the following is logged:
2007-09-04 08:02:13 SMTP connection from [63.195.92.230] (TCP/IP connection count = 1)
2007-09-04 08:02:19 H=adsl-63-195-92-230.dsl.snfc21.pacbell.net ([192.168.144.190]) [63.195.92.230] Warning: ACL "warn" statement skipped: condition test deferred
2007-09-04 08:02:19 H=adsl-63-195-92-230.dsl.snfc21.pacbell.net ([192.168.144.190]) [63.195.92.230] F=<FROM> temporarily rejected RCPT <RCPT>
2007-09-04 08:02:19 SMTP connection from adsl-63-195-92-230.dsl.snfc21.pacbell.net ([192.168.144.190]) [63.195.92.230] closed by QUIT
Pulling the logs, I also noticed a few of these from mailman-bounces, as
well, which would either be using local submission or smtp without
authentication.
Sending to the same RCPT works fine when done via pine on the box exim
runs on, and also works fine when done via port 587 from a third box on
the network using telnet-ssl to manually submit a test message.
Until now, this setup has been working fine for me.
My suspicion is this is DNS related, but the configuration is fairly
complex, and I'm not getting enough information logged to pinpoint where
this is failing - except that it does /not/ appear to be from one of the
six defer statements in the ACLs.
Any help as to how to troubleshoot this?
Thanks.
