amorak seems a little fragile, but has this cool feature such that it

Unfortunately, amarok-backtraces@xxxxxxxxxxxx declines them when I send

<amarok-backtraces@xxxxxxxxxxxx>: host mail.sourceforge.net[66.35.250.206]
said: 550-Verification failed for <xxxxxx@xxxxxxxx> 550-Called:

<xxxxxx@xxxxxxxx>: Relay access denied 550 Sender verify failed (in

to RCPT TO command)
I've carefully obfuscated my email address, but the rest is as in my
bounce message.
I don't understand how it's trying to verify the sender address, but the
sender address is correct and able to receive email - hence the need to
obfuscate it.
Do others have this problem, and if so what are you doing? Binning the
crashes?
One of two things: First, if a reverse DNS lookup of your IP address
doesn't match the domain of your email address, they may reject you.
If they do that, they're seriously broken for anyone who hosts multiple
domains.
Second, if they connect to your mail server and send your email address
as a "RCPT TO" command and your mail server rejects it, they reject you.
I didn't see any evidence of that, and I looked.
