Hello!
I can send or forward mail seemingly successfully from my mail client, Thunderbird. But shortly thereafter, I'll receive this failure message, saying, "Sorry, I couldn't find any host named mail.............com. (#5.1.2)". Could someone hazard a guess as to what maybe going on. Thanks! |

I'd guess that actual name contains non-ascii characters that qmail-send is rendering as ".". At any rate, qmail-remote isn't able to find an IP address for the domain. -- Dave Sill Author, The qmail Handbook Oak Ridge National Lab, IT Services <http://lifewithqmail.org/> |
