Dear ALL:
To make the things clear, please note the following:
Whenever REJECT happens, it logs the helo hostname in the logs. But,
when the sender is informed of this and he corrects the problem, we
start receiving the mails. But, I want to log the new helo hostname
which he would have set to solve the problem. How do I achieve it.
This is not be a permanent requirement.
Regards,
ANANT.
