[Pkg-exim4-users] Clarification regarding RCPT TO:
I accidentally posted the output of uname -a and fetchmail -v in my previous mail which i feel would confuse those trying to help, hence I am reposting my problem to the list. I am using a setup of mutt (version 1.5.9i)+fetchmail (version 6.2.5+NTLM+SDPS+SSL+NLS ) and exim4(4.50-8Sarge2) to access my work mail id vivekc@learning.hifx.net The whole setup runs on a Debian Sarge machine. user@hostname:~$ uname -a Linux hostname 2.6.8-2-386 #1 Tue Aug 16 12:46:35 UTC 2005 i686 GNU/Linux user@hostname:~$ The output of fetchmail -v is provided below. vivekc@hostname:~$ fetchmail -v Enter password for vivekc@learning.hifx.net@hifx.net: fetchmail: 6.2.5 querying hifx.net (protocol POP3) at Mon 12 Feb 2007 05:10:17 PM IST: poll started fetchmail: POP3< +OK POP3 lyra [cppop 20.0] at [64.235.230.209] fetchmail: POP3> CAPA fetchmail: POP3< +OK Capability list follows fetchmail: POP3< TOP fetchmail: POP3< USER fetchmail: POP3< UIDL fetchmail: POP3< XSENDER fetchmail: POP3< IMPLEMENTATION cppop fetchmail: POP3< . fetchmail: POP3> USER vivekc@learning.hifx.net fetchmail: POP3< +OK Need a password fetchmail: POP3> PASS * fetchmail: POP3< +OK You have 1 messages totaling 2790 octets from /home/hifx002/mail/learning.hifx.net/vivekc/inbox (full load) fetchmail: POP3> STAT fetchmail: POP3< +OK 1 2238 fetchmail: POP3> LAST fetchmail: POP3< +OK 0 1 message for vivekc@learning.hifx.net at hifx.net (2238 octets). fetchmail: POP3> LIST 1 fetchmail: POP3< +OK 1 552 fetchmail: POP3> TOP 1 99999999 fetchmail: POP3< +OK 2238 octets reading message vivekc@learning.hifx.net@ hifx.net:1 of 1 (552 octets) fetchmail: SMTP< 220-lyra.lunarpages.com ESMTP Exim 4.52 #1 Mon, 12 Feb 2007 03:40:27 -0800 fetchmail: SMTP< 220-We do not authorize the use of this system to transport unsolicited, fetchmail: SMTP< 220 and/or bulk e-mail. fetchmail: SMTP> EHLO localhost fetchmail: SMTP< 250-lyra.lunarpages.com Hello localhost [ 59.93.43.15] fetchmail: SMTP< 250-SIZE 52428800 fetchmail: SMTP< 250-PIPELINING fetchmail: SMTP< 250-AUTH PLAIN LOGIN fetchmail: SMTP< 250-STARTTLS fetchmail: SMTP< 250 HELP fetchmail: SMTP> MAIL FROM:< vivekcherian@gmail.com> SIZE=552 fetchmail: SMTP< 250 OK fetchmail: SMTP> RCPT TO:<vivekc@hifx.net> fetchmail: SMTP< 550-"The recipient cannot be verified.

The FQDN of my machine (which is inside the company''s LAN) is hostname.vtc.server. I also noticed that during the SMTP transaction the RCPT TO: field value has been changed to vivekc@hifx.net instead of vivekc@learning.hifx.net fetchmail: SMTP> MAIL FROM:<vivekcherian@gmail.com> SIZE=552 fetchmail: SMTP< 250 OK fetchmail: SMTP> RCPT TO:<vivekc@hifx.net>fetchmail: SMTP< 550-"The recipient cannot be verified. Please check all recipients of this fetchmail: SMTP< 550 message to verify they are valid." fetchmail: SMTP error: 550 message to verify they are valid." fetchmail: SMTP listener doesn''t like recipient address `vivekc@hifx.net'' I also notice that later in the output that there is no domain associated with the recipient address. fetchmail: SMTP< 220 hostname.vtc.server ESMTP Exim 4.50 Mon, 12 Feb 2007 17:10:40 +0530 fetchmail: SMTP> HELO localhost fetchmail: SMTP< 250 hostname.vtc.server Hello vivekc at localhost [ 127.0.0.1] fetchmail: SMTP> MAIL FROM:<FETCHMAIL-DAEMON@hostname.vtc.server> fetchmail: SMTP< 250 OK fetchmail: SMTP> RCPT TO:<vivekc> fetchmail: SMTP< 501 <vivekc>: recipient address must contain a domain fetchmail: SMTP> QUIT fetchmail: SMTP< 221 hostname.vtc.server closing connection fetchmail: SMTP> RCPT TO:< vivekc@hifx.net> fetchmail: SMTP< 550-"The recipient cannot be verified. Please check all recipients of this fetchmail: SMTP< 550 message to verify they are valid." This is how my .fetchmailrc file looks like. # By default, the system-wide fetchmail will output logging messages to # syslog; uncomment the line below to disable this. This might be useful # if you are logging to another file using the ''logfile'' option. # # set no syslog # Avoid loss on 4xx errors. On the other hand, 5xx errors get more # dangerous. # set no bouncemail # The following defaults are used when connecting to any server, and can # be overridden in the server description below. # # Set antispam to -1, since it is far safer to use that together with no # bouncemail. # defaults: antispam -1 batchlimit 100 # Example server section. # #poll foo.bar.org with protocol pop3 poll hifx.net with protocol pop3 # user baka there is localbaka here smtphost smtp.foo.bar.org; user vivekc@learning.hifx.net there is vivekc here smtphost hifx.net; The pop3 and smtp servers for the domain learning.hifx.net is hifx.net. I would like to know why 1) The RCPT TO: field value has been changed to vivekc@hifx.net instead of vivekc@learning.hifx.net 2) Later in the output that there is no domain associated with the recipient address. Kindly also let me know if I need to provide any additional information. Thanks in advance. -- Vivek Varghese Cherian -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
