Email Notification Problem.

Hi I host several php-nuke sites, about 100 total.

My problem is the following.
I recieve about 100 bounced emails a day from peeps who are watching topics.
This is as you know very annoying to say the least.
I checked into some of the unroutable email addresses & they are active accounts & working email addresses.

Here is an example of what I get...

Code:

This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.





A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its


recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:





  myemail@bellsouth.net


    unrouteable mail domain "bellsouth.net"





------ This is a copy of the message, including all the headers. ------





Return-path: <nobody@web.mydomain.com>

Hello Buzzsaw,





You have received a new private message to your account on "Our Nuke Site" and you have requested that you be notified on this event. You can view your new message by clicking on the following link:





http://www.hosted_domain.net/modules.php?name=Private_Messages&file=index&folder=inbox





Remember that you can always choose not to be notified of new messages by changing the appropriate setting in your profile.

Thanks, admin@hosted_domain.net

hosted_domain.net is users site.
myemal@bellsouth.com = users email
web.mydomain.com = my host server
nobody@web.mydomain.com = where my bounced emails go.

This happens on more than one site.

Has anyone any ideas of where I can fix this problem.

Running Redhat Linux
Cpanel

I have a similar problems, thu I do own and regist the domain, they are caused by several reasons, some not relivent to u thu
1/ Im on a dynmatic ip, some servers reject mainly Canadian)because of that
2/Spam filters But not spam, caused by user /isp settings see 1/
3/ Make up of headers txt in headers of the email
4/The way some isp/servers reject emails because of the web. part of nobody@web.mydomain.com assuming the domain.com part is fully registared. I assume the server looks at web.domain.com as a whole and sees it is not registrated
Im no an expert and dont fully understand the ins and outs, but investigation of the occasional rejection thats what has caused some of ours.
