    Postmaster account?

    I'm getting a bounced email from a mailing list with the following error...


    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:

    luabind-user@lists.sourceforge.net
    SMTP error from remote mailer after RCPT TO:<luabind-user@lists.sourceforge.net>:
    host mail.sourceforge.net [66.35.250.206]: 550-Postmaster verification failed while checking <tom@sickheadgames.com>
    550-(result of earlier verification reused).
    550-Several RFCs state that you are required to have a postmaster
    550-mailbox for each mail domain. This host does not accept mail
    550-from domains whose servers reject the postmaster address.
    550 Sender verify failed
    Do i need to add a real 'postmaster' email account?

    I think alias will do too...
    Indeed, you should have postmaster@yourdomain able to receive mail and forward it to someone who should read. abuse@yourdomian is recomended too.

        Also very much abused by spammers. postmaster@ and abuse@ have solely administrative purpose.

          their all abused-- best bundle 'em all as aliases
          to go to a like webmaster@ account or something.

          But-- they are good, cause even my mom gets
          to point where she thinks most sites will have an info@ email addie
