OT...

[Tertius Cronje]

Appologies for posting here...

I am unable to register a new email on the jython user-list. Seems the
mailserver tries to verify my sending email when tringing to confirm.

Does someone know what's going on or am I doing something stupid?

Many thanks
Tertius

As I read the message, it is trying to verify that

(e-mail address removed)

exists and receives mail -- probably for purposes of reporting
violations by subscribers.

550-Several RFCs state that you are required to have a postmaster
550-mailbox for each mail domain.

If "ananzi.co.za" is your own registered machine, you need to
create/accept email sent to "postmaster@..."

If the machine is not your own, but part of some service provider
company, the complaint will need to be taken up with their management,
as they are violating common practice.
