Hello,
Thanks for this service. I am attempting to test the secondary MX before I add it to DNS, but I am unable to do so. See below. Why is this happening?
[root@vader zone]# telnet mail.rollernet.us 25
Trying 67.118.43.92...
Connected to mail.rollernet.us.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 mail.rollernet.us ESMTP Postfix
HELO vader.soesoftware.com
250 mail.rollernet.us
MAIL FROM: myaddress@mydomain.com (changed for sake of example)
501 Bad address syntax
QUIT

Addresses need to be enclosed in angle brackets in the MAIL FROM and RCPT TO commands like so:
MAIL FROM: <admin@rollernet.us>
We are enforcing RFC 822 and the mail servers will reject anything that does not present a properly formatted conversation. The Postfix manual says: "Require that addresses received in SMTP MAIL FROM and RCPT TO commands are enclosed with <>, and that those addresses do not contain RFC 822 style comments or phrases. This stops mail from poorly written software."
MAIL FROM: <admin@rollernet.us>
