  • <> in MAIL FROM:

    From Robert Wolfe@1:116/17 to All on Friday, September 14, 2018 16:50:04
    So I am getting this from wcSMTP when my inbound mail scanner goes to
    deliver some mails:

    20180914 16:09:03 (09D8) MAIL: Unknown local domain user in return path: double-bounce@winserver.org
    20180914 16:09:03 (08C8) EHLO: Incoming connection:
    inbound.winserver.org [192.168.1.177]
    20180914 16:09:03 (08C8) MAIL FROM: <>... Sender ok.

    How do I fix this and keep this from happening? I use the eFa appliance
    to filter inbound emails before it hits my WINServer system.

    Is that a snip from your smtpfilter log, your wcsmtp log, the eFa appliance log???

    I checked several days of my smtpfilter and wcsmtp logs and did not find anything similar. I am not familiar with the eFa appliance.

    From my wcSMTP log. I think it has something to do with how postfix
    does email address verification or something like that.

    I checked several days of my smtpfilter and wcsmtp logs and did not
    find anything similar. I am not familiar with the eFa appliance.

    I have XWall running on the WINS VM right now and that seems to be
    keeping the spammer connections at bay for a while. I might just cave
    in and spend the roughtly $700 USD for a license since the application
    does what I need and apparently plays very nicely with wcMAIL/wcSMTP :)
