I've got a subscriber whose address is m_levasseur%AM%IML3@mr.dfo.ca,
which is a Banyan Vines address. I can send him mail at this address,
but mail from Majordomo (1.92) always generates a bounce.
Somehow the address is getting corrupted between the time when Majordomo
process the list and when it goes through sendmail, or so it seems to me
(I am sending mail from the Majordomo host).
The Vines gateway changes the adress to
/R=IML3/R=AM/U=m_levasseur/FFN=M_LEVASSEUR/@mr.dfo.ca
which I guess would look like a hostile address to Majordomo, but I
should think that Majordomo just delivers the address
m_levasseur%AM%IML3@mr.dfo.ca to sendmail and lets it pass on like some
crazy Internet address.
Any ideas here? Oh, I tried the following. I telnetted to port 25 and
tried both
VRFY m_levasseur%AM%IML3@mr.dfo.ca
and
VRFY phycotoxins-outgoing
giving
<m_levasseur%AM%IML3@mr.dfo.ca>
<m_levasseur%AM%IML3@mr.dfo.ca (Maurice Levasseur)>
for the two cases, so I can't understand why I can send him mail but
Majordomo can't.
