The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

553 5.1.8 <...>... Domain of sender address does not exist

Asked by Friendship in SendMail Email Server

Tags: sender, 553, domain, address, does

Dear all,

we are using a system "consrv1" under RH 7.3 with sendmail 8.12.11
where the .cf file was installed via this .mc file

divert(0)dnl
VERSIONID(`$Id: generic-linux.mc,v 8.1 1999/09/24 22:48:05 gshapiro
Exp $')
OSTYPE(linux)dnl
DOMAIN(eso-io.com)dnl
GENERICS_DOMAIN(eso-io.com)dnl
define(SMART_HOST,mail-s)dnl
FEATURE(generics_entire_domain)dnl
FEATURE(accept_unresolvable_domains)dnl
MASQUERADE_AS(eso-io.com)dnl
MAILER(local)dnl
MAILER(smtp)dnl

mail-s is running Solaris 8 and is the DNS and MX server for the
"eso-io.com" domain.

e-mail from user 'oracle' to Rainer.Blaes@space.eads.net from the
"consrv1" system is not delivered instead this message is appearing:


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

<Rainer.Blaes@space.eads.net>
    (reason: 553 5.1.8 <oracle@consrv1.eso-io.com>... Domain of sender
address oracle@consrv1.eso-io.com does not exist)

   ----- Transcript of session follows -----
... while talking to smtp-01.mgn.fr.:
                     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

>>> MAIL From:<oracle@consrv1.eso-io.com>
<<< 553 5.1.8 <oracle@consrv1.eso-io.com>... Domain of sender address
oracle@consrv1.eso-io.com does not exist
501 5.6.0 Data format error

"smtp-01.mgn.fr" is the MX mailer for the space.eads.net domain.

Although I'm using masquerading on "consrv1" i.e.

> /tryflags HS
> /try esmtp oracle@consrv1.eso-io.com

final              input: oracle < @ eso-io . com . >
final            returns: oracle @ eso-io . com
Rcode = 0, addr = oracle@eso-io.com

the mail-s mqueue is showing these entries:

               /var/spool/mqueue (2 requests)
-----Q-ID----- --Size-- -----Q-Time-----
------------Sender/Recipient-----------
i15FAhqJ025289*       5 Thu Feb  5 16:10 <oracle@consrv1.eso-io.com>
                                         <Rainer.Blaes@space.eads.net>
i15FBFqJ025292*    2071 Thu Feb  5 16:11 MAILER-DAEMON
                                         <oracle@consrv1.eso-io.com>

If masquerading is working why do I see in the sender address
the hostname consrv1 here.
 
If I'm using the command

/usr/lib/sendmail -f oracle@eso-io.com ........

the mail get delivered.

What's wrong here in our environment?

In advance many thanks for every hints!
