AW: [cobalt-users] MX record help needed

["WebControl" <mw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jonathan,

not sure wether this will solve your problem
put your zonefile should show as:

@ IN SOA ns1.columbusinteractive.com. postmaster.columbusinteractive.com. (
2000092801 ; serial
43200 ; refresh (12 hours)
3600 ; retry (1 hour)
604800 ; expire (7 days)
86400 ) ; minimum (1 day)
@		IN NS ns1.columbusinteractive.com.
localhost	IN A 127.0.0.1
@		IN A 64.27.84.146
www		IN A 64.27.84.146
@		IN MX 30 politics2004.com.

Make sure to set "Accept Email for Domain" politics2004.com
on the Raq.

BTW. you have only one nameserver authoritive for the domain
which is not RFC conform. You should always run 2 nameservers 
in at least different /24 (class-c) blocks. Better is you
have both namservers in seperate locations.

regards
Michael
