Hello all,
I have a qmail server which accepts emails for numerous domains. Unfortunately a mailing list which emails one domain daily isn't getting through. When I checked the log files it seemed to have made a successful connection:

Sep 22 23:09:14 localhost smtpd: 1095908954.976056 tcpserver: pid 7283 from 204.174.223.68
Sep 22 23:09:15 localhost smtpd: 1095908955.040611 tcpserver: ok 7283 mail.mydomain.com:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:25 marble.netnation.com:204.174.223.68::42112
Sep 22 23:09:15 localhost smtpd: 1095908955.315727 tcpserver: end 7283 status 0

However the email doesn't end up in my inbox.

Does anyone have any Ideas

Thanks for you help.

You probably have a list that uses special characters such as "-", "@", or "." in the recipient name. This sometimes breaks distributions of mail because it triggers alias .qmail processing.
