383919 - smtp.m.o blocking tinderbox mail

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(mozilla.org Graveyard :: Server Operations, task)

Description

[Nick Thomas [:nthomas] (UTC+12)]

These tinderboxes

 * fx-win32-tbox & fx-linux-tbox on the Firefox tree
 * patrocles & pacifica-vm on the Mozilla1.8 tree
 * possibly others

are not updating on their tinderbox waterfall pages, but are cycling properly. It has a knock on effect on the testing boxes because the quickparse.txt that they watch are also not being updated.

It seems to be a mail delivery problem, eg if I try to send a dummy message on fx-win32-tbox:
   echo foo > bar
   blat bar -to [e-mail]
I get back
 Blat v2.5.0 w/GSS entryption (build : Sep 14 2005 22:46:29)
 
 Sending bar to [e-mail]
 Login name is [e-mail]
 Try number 1 of 5.
 The SMTP server does not like the sender name.
 Have you set your mail address correctly?

Blat is configured to use that cltbld address with smtp.mozilla.org

Apart from the obvious reason this is a blocker, the trunk has been closed for 2 days and could probably be reopened if tinderbox could report.

I can't find a windows tinderbox that isn't showing a long yellow bar on a waterfall page, so I'm guessing they're all affected. 

Some of the linux boxes having problems:
 * fx-linux-tbox (Firefox)
 * tb-linux-tbox (Thunderbird)
 * cb-sb-linux-tbox (Sunbird)
 * karma (Mozilla1.8-l10n)
 * moz180-linux-tbox (Mozilla1.8.0-l10n, Mozilla1.8.0)
 * lt18-linux-tbox (Sunbird-Mozilla1.8)
Other machines, like argo-vm (Firefox) are ok

Mac's seem to be fine.

The problem started some time after 1am PDT on Sunday morning.
