Hello -
I am in the process of setting up a new RaQ3 to handle
name-based virtual hosting and things are going quite well with a few
exceptions. Maybe one of the Cobalt experts on this list can
help?!
I seem to be having a problem receiving inbound e-mail to any
of the site accounts. I have looked at everything I can think of,
but am probably overlooking something very simple. Here is a bit of info
on my setup:
Acting as my own Primary DNS with ISP acting as
secondary. The following DNS records are setup:
A record for domainname.com -> IP Addr
A record for www.domainname.com -> IP
Addr
A record for mail.domainname.com -> IP Addr
PTR record for IP Addr -> domainname.com
MX record for domainname.com ->
mail.domainname.com
In the "Site Settings" screen, the "Accept Email for Domain"
box is checked.
I have the "POP before SMTP" patch installed to allow limited
relay for my POP clients.
I can send outbound messages (via SMTP) successfully once I
have checked the POP mailbox.
The problem is that if someone (at another ISP like home.com
or local ISP) tries to send an e-mail
to the same account, I get nothing.
No errors, no rejections, no messages on either end.
If I signon via telnet and send the message locally from one
user to another via pine, everything works fine.
If I send the message directly via an SMTP server (on another
network), everything works fine.
I have even received messages from networksolutions/internic
with no problem. (Auto-responders)
My initial thought was DNS problems at the originating ISP
(home.com, etc....), but I have done an nslookup
on all DNS servers involved, and they are all returning the
correct information. (A, MX, etc...)
What am I missing? TIA
