Hi Fritz,

I am not sure which host file you are talking about, but the AS/400
hostfile has entries for:

domain.com.au
mail.domain.com.au
as400
as400.domain.com.au

The DNS server also has entries for these.

Hey Nathan,

It might be that you don't have as400.domain.com.au in your host file,
resolving to the IP address of your as400.  Is this the case?

Best Regards

Fritz Hayes

| Hi,
|
| We are using Domino 5.11 on our V4R5 AS/400.
|
| We are using the MTA.
|
| Our AS/400 name is 'as400' and domain is 'domain.com.au'
|
| When an external user sends an email to our domain but the address
isn't
| in the address book, the return mail isn't being sent to the user.
|
| I have 'postmaster' set up as an alias on my Domino Account.
|
| When I send an email to a nonexistent user I get a Delivery Failure
501
| 5.1.8 message.
|
| When I look at the queue of our outgoing mail it says it is sending it
| from 'postmaster@awh.com.au' but it never gets to the destination. And
as
| I have a 'postmaster' alias in my account I get the returned email.
|
| The returned email says:
|
| 501 5.1.8 <postmaster@AS400.DOMAIN.COM.AU>... Domain of sender address
| postmaster@AS400.DOMAIN.COM.AU does not exist
|
| I don't think this is Domino related but AS/400 SMTP related.
|
| What postmaster account does it use?  If I remove postmaster from my
| account I never see these emails.
|
| Is it a WRKDIRE issue? If so, what should I change or add?
|

|
