This isn't the case of subscribing through work and sending from home or |
2 |
whatever. In both cases I sent from home, indeed from the same account |
3 |
in the same mail client. Only the path the message took to |
4 |
list.gentoo.org changed. |

I hadn't posted to this for quite a while until recently. When I did so |
7 |
again a few days ago, the message hung up in my outgoing queue and I got |
8 |
this message in the log: |

I let it stew for a couple of hours in case this was a greylist thing, |
18 |
and subsequent resends did the same thing. |

I switched my client to relay though my ISP's MX, and the message went |
21 |
through fine. |
22 |
|
23 |
I'm guessing I'm running afoul of some anti-spam measure. Perhaps it is |
24 |
a case of reverse-DNS points to my ISP and not to my own domain, but a |
25 |
near-infinite number of people must share that condition. Or maybe my |
26 |
mailer is just misconfigured in some narrow way that none of my |
27 |
correspondents have had trouble with until now. |
28 |
|
29 |
I'd like to fix my system and lose the outbound relay, having something |
30 |
of an ideological opposition to my mail going through relays. Does |
31 |
anyone know what is going on here? |
32 |
|

Thanks, |
