Description

I don't think uucp's behaviour is incorrect.Sendmail or other AMTP server can not handle your email address like "Bob Smith"@redhat.com.The email address is illegal. The E-mail addresses in question are not "Bob Smith"@redhat.com but rather Bob smith. Further more our UUCP servers are 1 server back from our external SMTP (sendmail servers) and the external servers process the E-mail addresses as valid, passing routing them back to our internal servers. Also, on a semi related note does Redhat have a seperate bug reporting system for its enterprise support customers or is bugzilla.redhat.com still the right place for me to report problems? Thanks. Yes, reported it here is fine, thanks. (If you have a TAO/IssueTracker then of course you are welcome to raise the issue with them also.) Red Hat apologizes that these issues have not been resolved yet. We do want to make sure that no important bugs slip through the cracks. Red Hat Linux 7.3 and Red Hat Linux 9 are no longer supported by Red Hat, Inc. They are maintained by the Fedora Legacy project (http://www.fedoralegacy.org/) for security updates only. If this is a security issue, please reassign to the 'Fedora Legacy' product in bugzilla. Please note that Legacy security update support for these products will stop on December 31st, 2006. If this is not a security issue, please check if this issue is still present in a current Fedora Core release. If so, please change the product and version to match, and check the box indicating that the requested information has been provided. If you are currently still running Red Hat Linux 7.3 or 9, please note that Fedora Legacy security update support for these products will stop on December 31st, 2006. You are strongly advised to upgrade to a current Fedora Core release or Red Hat Enterprise Linux or comparable. Some information on which option may be right for you is available at http://www.redhat.com/rhel/migrate/redhatlinux/. Any bug still open against Red Hat Linux 7.3 or 9 at the end of 2006 will be closed 'CANTFIX'. Again, if this bug still exists in a current release, or is a security issue, please change the product as necessary. We thank you for your help, and apologize again that we haven't handled these issues to this point. Red Hat Linux is no longer supported by Red Hat, Inc. If you are still running Red Hat Linux, you are strongly advised to upgrade to a current Fedora Core release or Red Hat Enterprise Linux or comparable. Some information on which option may be right for you is available at http://www.redhat.com/rhel/migrate/redhatlinux/. Closing as CANTFIX. |
