1 Hi All,
2
3 Up until a few months ago the ISP of the network in question was happy to
4 accept and relay messages from my server <myserver.mydomain.com> which runs
5 nagios. My server gets its IP address from the ISP in question dynamically
6 so I use DynDNS to map the subdomain.domain name to it.
7
8 To be able to relay messages I of course have set up sendmail to authenticate
9 using email_account@×××.com/passwd_on_ISP.
10
11 When the ISP stopped accepting messages I started getting this error message:
12 ================================================================
13
14 -----The following addresses had permanent fatal errors-----
15 <email_account@×××.com>
16 (reason: 550 5.1.0 <nagios@×××××××××××××××××.com> sender rejected : invalid
17 sender domain)
18
19 -----Transcript of session follows -----
20 ... while talking to smtp.ISP.com:
21 >>> MAIL From:<nagios@×××××××××××××××××.com> SIZE=745 AUTH=<>
22 <<< 550 5.1.0 <nagios@×××××××××××××××××.com> sender rejected : invalid sender
23 domain
24 554 5.0.0 Service unavailable
25 ================================================================
26
27 Does this fail because the ISP's reverse DNS on my dynamically allocated IP
28 address resolves to an ISP domain instead of myserver.mydomain.com?
29
30 Is there something I could change in the configuration of my server to make
31 this work again?

34 Mick
