Your client's mail server (which I recognize as being AppleShare IP) doesn't like the way your mail server identifies itself. Your mail server identifies itself as: adsl-66.51.193.199.dslextreme.com But the PTR record for your IP address says: 66.51.193.199.dslextreme.com Configure your mail server to use the name in the PTR record. ____________________________________________________________________ Chris Buxton Men & Mice support@menandmice.com Making DNS Easy
