Greetings all..
I have been experiencing problems for a while now with transient bounces of
mail from Hotmail with a '554 Transaction failed' message (And not that
common, actually.. But still, it happens too often).
Searching the 'net, it seems that I am not alone.. But there doesn't seem
to be any solution offered there either.
As I can see it, assuming the original problem isn't on my side, there are
two possible solutions I can try. Either somehow demoting the 554 from a
permanent error to a service-not-available status, or making some automated
resending scheme for mails bouncing from Hotmail.
If anyone has any insight as to how I might implement this, or any other
solution you can think of, I'd be grateful.
My setup is Mandrake 7.2, with postfix for the mail agent. Running on
Nonstop ADSL (probably switching ISP soon - most likely to Actcom), Dynamic
IP & dyndns.org for dynamic DNS services (the machine identifies itself as
belonging to that domain - magician.homeip.net)
Any input would be appreciated,
-Eyal (aka ermon@post.tau.ac.il)
