mail error - Invalid route address

Mark Harshman_1 — Fri, 16 May 2008 13:14:59 GMT

Hello, I am running HPUX 11.11 on a rp5450 machine. running sendmail version 11.11.02.005.

I am getting an error when sending email from one of our software programs (optio). If i manually send to these addresses it works fine, but coming out of this product i get the following.

May 16 08:53:02 ippiux11 sm-mta[23623]: m4GDr2m0023623: ... Invalid route address
May 16 08:53:02 server_name sm-mta[23623]: m4GDr2m0023623: lost input channel from server_name [172.xx.xx.xx] to MTA after rcpt

i know, sounds like an issue with the software, but this works in other environments. any suggestions would be apprecitated. thanks

Are those anything like _computer_ programs?

I know nothing, but it looks to me as if
someone thinks that that's one (malformed)
address. Are you sure that you can specify a
list of addresses wherever these were
specified?

So a Linux forum may be less appropriate
than, say, an HP-UX forum.
