The virtual site on the RaQ MUST have an IP# from the RaQ.  What I do is
create a site called mail.domain.com on the RaQ.  "mail" is the
"hostname" and "domain.com" is the domain-name.

Then I put the following into index.html in the site's /web directory...

<html>
</html>

Then I set up an A record for mail.domain.com (wherever the dns is
hosted, which of course is NOT necessarily on your RaQ) pointing to an
IP# on the RaQ.

Then I set up an MX record pointing mail to domain.com to
mail.domain.com.

Has this helped?
