Bug in e-mail tool

Tue Jul 27, 2010 12:34 am

I have installed RouterOS v5beta4 in a X86 server IBM x3200 M2
I create a scheduled job to make automatics backups of my config and userman database. The job sends an email with that information, but most of the times the mail does not reach the server.
I'm using a local server based in qmail, and it is connected via LAN to the RouterOS. The connectivity between them is excellent.
The email debug shows the following:
Code: Select all
echo: e-mail,debug send RSET
echo: system,e-mail,error Error sending e-mail: SMTP server not ready
I made a packet capture in the server, and it shows that after the TCP Three way handshake, the server response with the welcome banner and the RouterOS inmediatly sends a TCP "RSET":
Code: Select all
Packet1 - Source:RouterOS   Destination:MailServer TCP: SYN
Packet2 - Source:MailServer Destination:RouterOS   TCP: SYN,ACK
Packet3 - Source:RouterOS   Destination:MailServer TCP: ACK
Packet4 - Source:MailServer Destination:RouterOS   SMTP: "Hello Banner"
Packet5 - Source:RouterOS   Destination:MailServer TCP: RST
The strange thing is that after 2 or 3 attemps, the mail is correctly delivered.

how long it takes to respond to this request? And what exactly is different when you have successful trasnfer. Also, try to use the newest version available if testing beta/rc
