    Hello and thanks for the howto. I've been using this mailserver setup for a few years now, but recently I noticed that some of the recipients MTA reject messages when sent from an email client like Tunderbird or Outlook Express.
    The difference between a message sent from a client and the one sent from horde is in the Sender name.

    From Horde is correct - [email protected]
    From mail a client is wrong - "[email protected]"@mail.example.com, where mail.example.com is the hostname of my mail server.
    The complete line in log file (real user and domains changed):
    Code:
    2010-08-10 11:37:07 1OikKS-0002Tp-M2 <= "[email protected]"@mail.example.com H=([192.168.1.103]) [93.152.157.42] P=esmtpa A=plain:[email protected] S=984 [email protected]
    I googled for a few days untill I found no solution to this problem.
    Please help if you have any ideas.

    Did you set the correct sender address in your email client?

    Everything is set in the client. I use other mail servers for other accounts and they work fine with similar settings.

    Thanks! That solved it. I should have searched howtoforge instead of Google, you're right.
