cannot receive email from mail server installed with postfix
 

Dear All,

I have installed sendmail 8.12.8-5.90 in my home PC
and it can send and receive email. But I find that
I cannot receive emails from a certain hosts with attachments.
Without attachment, it's okay.

For example, I tried to send a email with a attachement from
one of the trouble server and after a few hours, it bounce back
a mail to me as follows


This is the Postfix program at host emethist.hknet.com.

Can any one help me to resolve this problem? I really
worry I have lost lots of emails..... need to resolve this
immediately.. Thank you.

Take a look at your maillog to see if there are any more clues.

collect: Premature EOM: connection reset
collect: I/O error on connection

What is your network setup? Do you go through any software firewalls proxy servers or anything? Is it a natted address.

My LInux system is RH9. But there should have no proxy enabled.
iptables have been disabled before... but seems no improvement to this problem. Actually, I can receive some emails with attachement from other hosts....
