[Popcon-developers] Bug#255666: popularity-contest: email bounces (different from situation in FAQ)

[Kapil Hari Paranjape]

Package: popularity-contest
Version: 1.20
Severity: minor

Hello,

I receive the following error while sending mail to
survey@popcon.debian.org:

==================

This message was created automatically by mail delivery software (Exim).

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:

  survey@popcon.debian.org
    SMTP error from remote mailer after end of data:
    host gluck.debian.org [192.25.206.10]: 550 rejected:
    cannot route to sender <kapil@imsc.res.in>

=================

As you can see from the current e-mail and you can test for yourself
<kapil@imsc.res.in> is in fact a valid email address. So there is no
reason (that I can see) for the "cannot route to sender" message to
show up.

Thanks and regards,

Kapil.
