CheckMessageId rejecting mail
Bleve
G'day,
I'm seeing this from a legitimate (but possibly poorly implemented,
it's exchange by the looks of it) MTA :
Oct 25 11:13:34 rollcage2 sendmail[10447]: o9P0DYwS010447:
from=<XXXXX@XXXXXX>, size=4949, class=0, nrcpts=1,
msgid=<5E0E4242D7483443B970...@WIC002EBCLV3.exchange.server-
login.com>, proto=ESMTP, daemon=MTA-v4, relay=bne3-0002mrc.server-
mail.com [203.147.156.26] (may be forged)
Oct 25 11:13:37 rollcage2 sendmail[16815]: o9P0DYwS010447:
ruleset=CheckMessageId, arg1= <F869E211-DF8E-4845-A927-D7B123E0F977>,
relay=bne3-0002mrc.server-mail.com [203.147.156.26] (may be forged),
reject=553 5.0.0 <Y...@ZZZ.COM>... Header Error
The mail's ok and I want to receive it. My system is NetBSD with
sendmail from pkgsrc - 8.14.4 at this time.
Firstly, can anyone suggest why it's being blocked? A bit of a google
for 553 errors suggested that it's a dodgey message ID, but how can I
allow that through?
thanks!

So the "MTA" has a broken DNS setup.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
And some luser uses broken SW that does not follow the RFCs...
message-id = "Message-ID:" msg-id CRLF
msg-id = [CFWS] "<" id-left "@" id-right ">" [CFWS]

Disable the CheckMessageId header check. That is not default,
so either it's been added by the local postmaster or by the
OS maintainer.

Actually, it would be better if the sender fixed his message generation so
as to generate a proper MID.

Done. Thanks Claus!
