Dear Whomever,
I've already sent this last week but no one is responding. Once more...
I received an e-mail with the following header fragment:
===V=== cut here ===V====
Received: from priv-edtnes11-hme0.telusplanet.net (outbound03.telus.net
[199.185.220.222])
by tinkertoys.net (8.12.10/8.11.6) with ESMTP id hANMNpKS021237;
Sun, 23 Nov 2003 15:23:51 -0700 (MST)
===^=== cut here ===^====
In my hosts.allow file (which usually rejects domains just fine) I have:
===V=== cut here ===V====
smtp : 199.185.220.0/255.255.251.0 : deny
===^=== cut here ===^====
The above listed e-mail should have been rejected but it wasn't. Is this a
bug? Is a 975K host.allow file creating this problem? Please help...
Thanks,
