I am having trouble sending mail to verisign.com. This is the exact sendmail error message (/var/log/maillog): ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jul 25 12:28:59 net1 sendmail[4995]: MAA04995: to=, ctladdr= (1004/1000), delay=00:00:02, xdelay=00:00:01, mailer=smtp, relay=gateway-outside.verisign.com. [204.162.64.20], stat=Deferred: Connection reset by peer during client greeting with gateway-outside.verisign.com. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here is my mailq output: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mail Queue (1 request) --Q-ID-- --Size-- -----Q-Time----- ------------Sender/Recipient------------ MAA04995 228 Thu Jul 25 12:28 (... reply: read error from gateway-o) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Why would every mail exchanger work for me, but error with Verisign? They are able to send mail to me, just me not them. I thought this would be a good place for this question as other sendmail exchangers work with verisign, so it does not appear to be a sendmail problem -- perhaps just a FreeBSD setup issue. BTW -- I think this may have something to do with their firewall.? **************************************** John Clark jc@netview.net NetView Communications http://www.netview.net ****************************************
