Please help me out from this issue

[uxbod]

That is most probable a DNS issue so please post the following

cat /etc/hosts
cat /etc/resolv.conf
dig yourdomain mx
dig yourdomain any
host `hostname` <- note backticks and not single quotes (copy 'n' paste)

Thks for your timely reply uxbod,

Your /etc/resolv.conf should have the IP address of LAN DNS server and the additional command you should have run is this:

host `hostname` <- note backticks and not single quotes (copy 'n' paste)

exactly as you see it there or copy/paste it.

Do not see any reason why not.

You would be better using your upstream ISPs SMTP relay server as they should have a reverse DNS entry in place.
