Hey All,
I'm running sendmail 8.9.3 and pretty much left everything default. The
spam stoppers are in full effect..
I have a question about the following:
Mar 20 14:39:25 xxx sendmail[18726]: OAA18726: ruleset=check_mail,
arg1=
bebe.com Server: ns.server.com Address: ip.addy.here
*** ns.server.com can't find bebe.com: Non-existent host/domain
set type=mx bebe.com Server: ns.server.com Address: ipaddyhere
Non-authoritative answer: bebe.com preference = 0, mail exchanger = bebe-mail.bebe.com Authoritative answers can be found from: bebe.com nameserver = AUTH02.NS.UU.NET bebe.com nameserver = bebe-ns.bebe.com bebe.com nameserver = BEBE-NS2.bebe.com bebe-mail.bebe.com internet address = 208.240.224.197 AUTH02.NS.UU.NET internet address = 198.6.1.82 bebe-ns.bebe.com internet address = 208.240.224.225 BEBE-NS2.bebe.com internet address = 208.240.224.210 By looking at this.. I concluded that MX records aren't looked at when deciding if a domain resolves or not. So.. I do the some testing with hospitalforms.com (which doesnt resolve but has an MX record) and it worked.. So. Am I right when I assume that bebe.com's ns servers were most likely down for a period of time? Auth02.ns.uu.net is huge.. and 3 nameservers all go down at the same time? This doesnt seem right. Any suggestions?
