OK, after trying out a few things, I think sendmail on FreeBSD is the
actual culprit here. I downloaded sendmail 8.11.2 from sendmail.org, built
and installed it, used the stock freebsd.mc file to generate a new .cf...
Lo and behold, this version will deliver to LAME domains. I had tried the
following combos:
Using the totally LAME domain supercom.ca
STABLE as of a few days ago (Jan 24) stock sendmail + stock BIND: no LAME
delivery
release BIND+ stock sendmail: No delivery
release BIND+ sendmail .8.11.2: I can email LAME domains.
STABLE stock BIND+ sendmail 8.11.2: I can email LAME domains...
So in the end, this seems to be a sendmail issue, not a bind issue, but
seems specific to FreeBSD, as the same versions of sendmail and BIND on a
LINUX box, do not have this problem.
Comments ? What is different about sendmail on FreeBSD that would account
for this behaviour ?
