I currently have reverse DNS in my zone files as well as in the files of my provider. Here is a nslookup command down on my shell account with my ISP: /sp2/kib % nslookup 216.27.132.20 Server: sea.speakeasy.net Address: 216.231.41.22 Name: ns1.kibserv.org Address: 216.27.132.20 /sp2/kib % So what is the freebsd email server expecting to see? Try nslookup on your own side and tell me if you get something else reported for this IP. ----- Original Message ----- From: "freebsd" <george@vagner.com> To: "Jason Cribbins" <jasonc@concentric.net> Sent: Monday, February 04, 2002 5:52 PM Subject: Re: Warning: could not send message for past 4 hours > you need a reverse DNS entry put into the zone files > from your provider or who ever is the authority for > the netblock your on. > > it is a antispam measure that freebsd.org adopted > and requires that any mail sent to the list must have a reverse entry. > > where it shows your IP address it will also show the domain name > if there is an entry in dns for it. > > you might ask the admin for Michael D baker incorporated in > New york. > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Jason Cribbins" <jasonc@concentric.net> > To: <questions@FreeBSD.ORG> > Sent: Monday, February 04, 2002 12:27 PM > Subject: Fw: Warning: could not send message for past 4 hours > > > > Can anyone help me with this?
