The last couple of times I've tried to send messages to the FreeBSD lists, They've bounced with this sort fo message: ********************************************** ** THIS IS A WARNING MESSAGE ONLY ** ** YOU DO NOT NEED TO RESEND YOUR MESSAGE ** ********************************************** The original message was received at Tue, 4 Apr 2000 21:52:07 +1000 (EST) from CPE-144-132-171-71.nsw.bigpond.net.au [144.132.171.71] ----- The following addresses had transient non-fatal errors ----- ----- Transcript of session follows ----- .. while talking to hub.freebsd.org.: >>> RCPT To: <<< 450 Client host rejected: cannot find your hostname, [24.192.3.29] ... Deferred: 450 Client host rejected: cannot find your +hostname, [24.192.3.29] Warning: message still undelivered after 4 hours Will keep trying until message is 5 days old ---- end of transcript--- Now 24.192.3.29 resolves to sr14.nsw-remote.bigpond.net.au here, and that's the out-bound mail server for the largest local cable internet service, of which I happen to be a client. Now they're recognised as being a bunch of gumbies, but could there be another reason for this? Something at your end?
