The following link might help you: > > http://www.dvl-software.com/freebsd/localnames.htm > hmmmm...I read your logs and I double checked the clients IP in both my IN A and IN PTR records no dice...either it's not the client that is making the errors or I have two problems - one client isn't resolving, and another can't send mail. It's the one who can't send mail that is giving me a headache. Everytime she tries to send a message it comes back with 'NO RCPT' and then queues the message till later. She is using Eudora and I have triple checked the setup to make sure that it is right, which it is. Very befoozled here. Thanks for the sugestions so far, does anyone have anything else up their sleeves?
