Thread: postgresql.org reverse lookup fail
Hi, We have serious problems past 4 days in receiving mail lists from postgresql.org. Subscribers living in the jp domain are receiving via a relay host named powergres.sra.co.jp (this is an authorized relay host for jp domain, and this configuration has been approved by Marc). After checking the log on powergres.sra.co.jp, it turns out that reverse look up for postgresql.org has been failed and this make it impossible to receive those mails from postgresql.org. Anyone can take care of this problem? -- Tatsuo Ishii
looking into it ... seems somewhere upstream changed their DNS config to not pull our reverse information ... just had someone else point it out to me as well :( I've removed the jp relay temporarily, since it is failing, and hope to have it resolved within the next 24hrs ...

Due to this sendmail denies to receive mails relayed by svr1.postgresql.org (200.46.204.71). Jan 25 04:09:55 powergres sendmail[9622]: i0OJ9qY09622: ruleset=check_rcpt, arg1=<aau69800@par.odn.ne.jp>, relay=[200.46.204.71], reject=550 5.7.1<aau69800@par.odn.ne.jp>... Relaying denied. IP name lookup failed [200.46.204.71] -- Tatsuo Ishii

Relaying denied. IP name lookup failed [200.46.204.71] As a temporary measure you could set the hostname/domain name for this IP in /etc/hosts (provided sendmail is configured to use the local resolver, then DNS).

Thank you Tatsuo, the problem with reverse DNS has been fixed, and I've tested that powergrew.sra.co.jp once more works, and have re-enabled it. Please let me know of any other problems in the future ... On Wed, 28 Jan 2004, Tatsuo Ishii wrote: > Hi, > > We have serious problems past 4 days in receiving mail lists from > postgresql.org.
