Hi there, hoping this is a common issue with a simple fix...
Someone is trying to use my box for a relay, which sendmail is taking care of nicely, but I keep getting
A) my inbox filled with messages that for some reason it's trying to deliver locally and B) these strange
log messages....

fre.sg.co.nz.mydomainname.com. config error: mail loops back to me (MX problem?)
If I do an nslookup on this fre.sg.co.nz, i get the following:
Server: tor-ns1.netcom.ca
Address: 207.181.101.4 <- my upstream nameserver that I use
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: fre.sg.co.nz.muydomainname.com
Addresses: 209.82.123.456, 209.167.123.456
Why is my upstream returning this as my domain? I'm not clear on where the issue lies?
If you have an idea, please let me know. Also, if you could CC me it would be great, as I'm not currently
subscribed to the list.
Many thanks in advance,
phillip.
