ok, i have found the problem. someone's home-grown mail server is
f/&%ed up.
as a temporary fix, i set a spamfilter rule to catch the annoying 2
messages. i'm too tired for a real solution, and will be going to
bed now. i hope steve and chris will forgive me, because the poor
guys get a rejection message every minute or so...
<tongue class="in_cheek">
if somebody feels bored, try to take the problem host down after
writing a friendly message to the owner (hint: the ancient ipop-2
exploit seems not to work).
sigh. why do distros come with public mail servers?
