Re: Sendmail dnsbl issue

Sorry about the 'z' vs. the 's'. I really did mean to hit the 's' key,
honest.

Okay, I tried the example you cited below, it worked fine. I added more text
inside the quotes and whammy! I got errors.

I went back and looked at the entry, everything looked okay to me. I tried
it again and still got the whammy. I took out my added text, tried it again,
and it worked! Added my text, got whammy.

Then it hit me! I was using a comma to separate my text inside the quotes:

"...refused, please see http://dnsbl.example.com/ip?"$&{client_addr}')

Sendmail was expecting everything after this comma to be an argument! Now I
just feel stupid :)

So it really has nothing to do with $`'&{client_addr} vs. $&{client_addr}

Thanks again Ed, It is indeed the little things that trip us up?
