Hi all,

For reasons I cannot fathom, courier occasionally fails to make deliveries to Rogers AT&T text messaging recipients. The mail will sit in queue for awhile, producing messages like this (phone number altered):

Sep 29 19:16:51 basil courieresmtp: i d=000302B3.415B416A.00002A51,from=<be n@zygoat.ca>,addr=<6130@pcs.rogers.com>: No such file or directory Sep 29 19:16:51 basil courieresmtp: i d=000302B3.415B416A.00002A51,from=<be n@zygoat.ca>,addr=<6130@pcs.rogers.com>,status: deferred Sep 29 19:16:51 basil courierd: completed,id=000302B3.415B416A.00002A51 Sep 29 19:16:51 basil courierd: Waiting. shutdown time=Wed Sep 29 20:09: 02 2004, wakeup time=Wed Sep 29 19:21:51 2004, queuedelivering=1, inprogress=0

Eventually if I cancelmsg, I get a DNS that looks like this:

Your message to the following recipients cannot be delivered:

<6130@pcs.rogers.com>: rr-mail.rogers.page.ca [216.220.37.23]: rr-mail.rogers.page.ca [216.220.37.20]: <<< No such file or directory

What's this "no such file or directory" business?

I cannot explain the failure, because telnetting to 25 on either of those MX and manually speaking SMTP sends the message fine.

Much of the time, though, deliveries to pcs.rogers.com addresses work flawlessly as one would expect.
