Hi, It's not a hardware issue instead as Brian pointed out it's an issue with nagios-plugin. I had to use perl/python scripts as a workaround when i was trying to configure such checks on our mail servers.. Cheers n TIA Manish. <div>On 5/24/07, Brian C.

The check_smtp plugin doesn't like the -C 'mail from: <a href="mailto:joe@bloe.dom">joe@bloe.dom</a>' -R 250 and -C 'data' -R 354 -C '.' -R 250 pieces to appear together. If you leave out the "mail from" sequence and use -f instead, it works. That seems like a bug in the plugin.
