Hi there,
Our user is complaining about emails not being received when smart-hosted out via our PMG cluster. They did a mail-tester.com check and have provided this:
We've checked;
/etc/hostname - the short hostname (pmgchanged, the part before the first .,) needs to be entered there.
/etc/hosts - there needs to be an entry with the main IP pointing to the short hostname and FQDN:
/etc/resolv.conf - needs to contain the domain name part as search - This can also be accomplished in the GUI (on the main Configuration Menu entry):
Checking the mail.log we can see things like:
Could you please offer any help here?
Thanks.
