When trying to deliver mail to the Iris system (ntf) from a Sun running SunOS 4.1 (calvin; linac's mailhost), sendmail reports the following: Return-Path: Date: Tue, 14 Aug 90 08:49:48 CDT From: Mailer-Daemon@calvin (Mail Delivery Subsystem) Subject: Returned mail: Remote protocol error To: ----- Transcript of session follows ----- Connected to ntf: >>> MAIL From: <<< 554 rewrite: expansion too long >>> QUIT <<< 554 rewrite: expansion too long 554 ... Remote protocol error ----- Unsent message follows ----- Net result: the Iris system does not accept the mail message for delivery from the Sun. It will, however, accept mail from one VAX running Multinet. I am not aware of the Sun having problems delivering mail to any other systems. I posted this several days ago in comp.sys.sgi with no definitive replies so far. So I'm going to the experts. Any ideas out there? If you email replies, I will summarize. If you post, I will read it. Thanks in advance. -- John Palkovic (708) 840-3527 palkovic@fnal.bitnet,palkovic@linac.fnal.gov University of Wisconsin-Madison {yclept,tellab5,obdient}!linac!palkovic & Fermilab, Batavia, IL Coor: 41 50 16 N / 88 15 46 W
