Hi,

I am running a mail server on redhat linux


On checking my domain on www.dnsreport.com, I came across the following

WARNING: Acceptance of domain literals
WARN: One or more of your mailservers does not accept mail in the
domain literal format (user@[0.0.0.0]). Mailservers are technically
required RFC1123 5.2.17 to accept mail to domain literals for any of
its IP addresses. Not accepting domain literals can make it more
difficult to test your mailserver, and can prevent you from receiving
E-mail from people reporting problems with your mailserver. However,
it is unlikely that any problems will occur if the domain literals are
not accepted.

www.myserver.com postmaster@[68.88.110.209] response:
>>> RCPT TO: <postmaster@[68.88.110.209]>

<<< 550 5.7.1 ... Relaying denied


I could not find a solution to fix this problem..Can any one please help me?
Thanks,
Ann

Try putting
[68.88.110.209]
into /etc/mail/local-host-names
