I have no-ip.org which is similar to dyndns and employe reject_unknown_sender_domain and do not *seem* to have any problem with any mail. I look at the logs every morning and see nothing amiss.
Yes, when suse's default MTA was sendmail, it came with the equivalent option enabled, and it worked. I wonder why they disabled it in postfix.
My only worry is that it will slow my download, I use a modem and here we pay by the minute: local calls are not free as I think most of N.A. uses.
That's why I'm trying with 'reject_non_fqdn_sender' first.
Neither works. :-/ Not "reject_non_fqdn_sender, nor "reject_unknown_sender_domain", nor /etc/postfix/access. The sender empty sender address, "<>" is not rejected :-( Furthermore, reject_unknown_sender_domain rejects emails with false domain, true, except that then fetchmail simply doesn't flush them from the server, but leaves them there; with the result that they are tried on the next cycle, and I finally have to remove them manually. The remedy is worse than the illness :-/ -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
