If I read the message correctly outboundproxy6 is sending "helo outboundproxy6" and not "helo outboundproxy6.bluehost.com". And mail.postgresql.org is configured to reject. Look at this.... [egreshko@misty ~]$ telnet 200.46.204.86 25 Trying 200.46.204.86... Connected to mail.postgresql.org (200.46.204.86). Escape character is '^]'. 220 mail.postgresql.org ESMTP Postfix helo misty 250 mail.postgresql.org mail from:<e.greshko@xxxxxxxxxxx> 250 2.1.0 Ok rcpt to:<pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> 504 5.5.2 <misty>: Helo command rejected: need fully-qualified hostname rset 250 2.0.0 Ok helo misty.greshko.com 250 mail.postgresql.org mail from:<e.greshko@xxxxxxxxxxx> 250 2.1.0 Ok rcpt to:<pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> 450 4.7.1 <pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>: Recipient address rejected: Greylisted for 5 minutes rset 250 2.0.0 Ok quit 221 2.0.0 Bye Connection closed by foreign host.
