[Freemint-list] FreeMiNT list (again) blacklisted

[Rob M]

I don't touch the mail or network settings.. webmin shouldn't be changing
anything on its own either.  Only thing I did recently was run the linux
updates on the system.

Hmmmm..  wonder if it's something in the openvz settings for the virtual
server when it reboots?? That's about the time we had a power outage and
needed to reboot the system.

Miro,  unless Alan has concerns, go ahead and use root access to fix
issues. I may own and host it. but it's a community project. I have no
issue with having trusted members having root access.

Just email to let us know what's going on..

Rob

Rob is in charge of it, and I'm pretty sure it's because Rob keeps using
webmin and it keeps on destroying stuff.

I've fixed it again, but Rob, please look at what you are doing as this is
getting pretty ridiculous.

Hi all,

the last mail I received from the list was from 5th of December.

Indeed, MiNT list was blacklisted again until a few minutes ago (see here:
http://www.abuseat.org/lookup.cgi?ip=96.32.243.245). Not because it has
been identified as spam source, but just because the MTA has been
misconfigured according to RFCs:

This IP address is HELO'ing as *"localhost.localdomain"* which violates the
relevant standards (specifically: RFC5321).

As far as I understand, this was for the same reason than last time and
several times before, i.e. the problem wasn't fixed.

It appears our mintlist mail host identifies itself as
localhost.localdomain instead of mail.atariforge.org on initial HELO to
receiving MTAs when it attempts to deliver mail.

If this doesn't get fixed, we'll never get reliable MiNT list message
delivery since our mail host will be blacklisted again.

Spamhaus offers detailed advice on how to repair the current misbehaviour
here: http://www.abuseat.org/namingproblems.html

Alan, I don't know if its you or anybody else in charge of the mail server
config, but it needs to be fixed.

Thank you!

Markus
