Hello all,
Does anyone got an idea of how to set MX Records in a DNS server?
All email of one of my domain names must be forwarded to 3 other email servers.
When I create 3 MX records in the DNS and do a "dig mx domain.nl" command
through Telnet, then you'll get such results:
-----
;; ANSWER SECTION:
domain.nl. 5h42m19s IN MX 30 mx.wirehub.net.
domain.nl. 5h42m19s IN MX 30 mail.deabv.nl.
domain.nl. 5h42m19s IN MX 30 mailme.wirehub.nl.
-----
What it needs to be is:
-----
;; ANSWER SECTION:
domain.nl. 5h42m19s IN MX 110 mx.wirehub.net.
domain.nl. 5h42m19s IN MX 100 mail.deabv.nl.
domain.nl. 5h42m19s IN MX 105 mailme.wirehub.nl.
-----
If you change "Delivery Precedence" in your Server Admin, you can get different
values (between 20 and 50), but not the 100, 105 and 110...
Second, if you open the file /etc/named/pri.domain.nl, there you can see these
values, but you can't change them.
If anyone got an idea of how to do this, please contact me.
Thank you,
