RE: [cobalt-users] RAQ3: Catch-all email address

["John Cordeiro" <jcordeiro@xxxxxxxx>]

check your updates. Go to the raq url http://somedomain.com/admin click on
the maintenance button and look under install software, on the bottom of the
page are the installed updates. you can get the updates from the cobalt
support/download page. Install all the updates in the order of # lowest to
highest. Good luck. We all use @host.domain.com and no cnames, none of us
have this problem if the patches are up to date.

First, why that would matter is beyond me.  Unless the email server is
totally braindead.  And my mail server is set up for "mail.webgeek.com",
not "www.webgeek.com" and the "mail.webgeek.com" is set up as an "A" record
in all 4 DNS servers.

However, in the DNS settings on the RAQ3 itself I **DO NOT** use a CNAME
for "www".  I only use the cname on the server at ZONEEDIT which the RAQ3
machine cannot see.

I'll change the setting at Zoneedit, but it should have NO effect of any
kind.
