Help with email issues

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi All;

I'm hoping someone can help me with some strange email issues.


I can send emails to most anyone except for the postgresql email lists. I've 
pinged 'em several times - even the list admins but I dont think my mails are 
getting through.

At one point I tried to send an email to the list and I got this message back:


=====================================
Hi. This is the qmail-send program at outboundproxy6.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

<pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>:
200.46.204.86 does not like recipient.
Remote host said: 504 5.5.2 <outboundproxy6>: Helo command rejected: need 
fully-qualified hostname
Giving up on 200.46.204.86.

--- Enclosed are the original headers of the message.

=====================================


I did some google  searches and found lots of messages like this (they all 
seem to be related to this 200.46.204.86 IP):


Can you perhaps track it down through the logfiles on the MX machine,
using the ESMTP id of the last hop out of postgresql.org/hub.org?

Since it appears to be a mail hosting company who *also* happens to use
postini/google for their antispam, it can be pretty much any domainname
at all, I think... And we can't very well null-route any address who
uses postini as their relayers, becuase loads of legit users do that...

I did a ping on my mail server :

$ ping mail.kevinkempterllc.com
PING kevinkempterllc.com (69.89.20.54) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from box54.bluehost.com (69.89.20.54): icmp_seq=1 ttl=128 time=84.5 
ms


and I checked the main IP my firewall is getting from comcast 

neither of them is anything like the  200.46.204.86 IP

I'm pretty good with Linux but I'm more of a DBA - the email/network areas are 
far far from my skill set

Thoughts?

Thanks in advance...
