[Savannah-help-public] Fw: [sr #105803] mail server doesn't forward mails from Strato

[Sylvain Beucler]

Hi sysadmins,

Bruno here has trouble sending mail to address@hidden His ISP is
rejecting bounces, and mx10 rejects it in turn.

I don't know what you are willing to do: get the ISP to change its
smtp policies, or remove that rule from mx10.

On the other hand, Bruno apparently did receive a bounce, so maybe the
bounce-acceptance test can be improved?

Details:

Hi,

This worked yesterday, but does not work today: I have my
mail account at Strato (one of the two largest German
providers, who hosts millions of email accounts). I wish to
send email to a gnu.org mailing list from this account, but it
leads to the following error:

   ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors -----

   ----- Transcript of session follows -----

   550 5.0.0 Mailbox unavailable

The IP address 192.67.198.48 is mailin.webmailer.de,
which is Strato's mail server.

It appears that a particular configuration of mx10.gnu.org
causes it to reject the mail delivery attempts from
mailin.webmailer.de.
