I have actually solved the problem. I intend to post a summary for the archive when I return to the site later in the week, at which time I'll be able to identify the OS/nameserver combination at fault. Here's a teaser, though: it's a Microsoft product (I just don't know which), and it's returing SERVFAIL status for a AAAA record query. Curiously, sendmail's WorkAroundBrokenAAAA option did not help, and I don't know why. Daryl Tester suggested using a mailertable entry, and this worked. --=20 Paul. w http://logicsquad.net/ h http://paul.hoadley.name/ --oyUTqETQ0mS9luUI Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFBxsSK730Z/jysbzIRAnwBAJ0ZPVEJik1rNXEBbFplwxNzHrhPPQCfcI9M 3n+qNtJFU4G89wx37+kjH9w= =qbIQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --oyUTqETQ0mS9luUI--
