Hi Tim,
Thanks for getting back to me.
I've been getting hammered by spam so tried a few things, rDNS checks
being one of them. Unfortunately, the mail server checks the rDNS for
the host (mail.pearsoncomputing.net), the domain alone is not sufficient
( See results from 'mxtoolbox.com' - Your Reverse DNS Record (PTR) is
not a valid host name. According to email sending best practices, a PTR
Record should be a valid host name. If the PTR Record is not a valid
hostname, there is a likelihood that you will experience email delivery
issues with anti-spam services.)
I added an exception for pearsoncomputing.net but the rDNS check was
rejecting other valid mail too so I've removed it.
Hi Guys,
Firstly, my apologies to Tim, Slavek, Michele and Francois as I sent
them a direct email regarding this problem because I thought the mailing
list was down but in fact, it was my mail server blocking list messages
because the Reverse DNS check failed for 'mail.pearsoncomputing.net'.
Reverse DNS looks fine here (subdomain should not matter):
192.119.205.242 pearsoncomputing.net The TDE servers are still in a bad physical location
for Internet access,
on top of residing in the United States where high speed Internet access
is typically much harder to obtain than the rest of the world. Relocation
is still being worked on with tentative scheduling for the middle of 2016.
Understood.
Slavek has a (plain HTTP) mirror here:
http://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit/
Thanks, I read this message in the archive before I started receiving
list messages and I've started to clone Slávek's mirror. Though he did
mention in his reply about a complication regarding the submodules.
Alternatively you can download the complete release tarball for R14.0.2;
it contains the GIT SCM files such that you should only need to switch
back to the master branch and pull (relatively small) updates from the
master server:
https://trinitydesktop.org/releases/R14.0.2/
I don't see any SCM files in the monolithic tar ball.
Hope this helps!
It does, very much, thanks.
Regards,
Mike.
