The virtual site is www.wrhospital.com with no email server alias and
wrhospital.com

Here's my DNS records right now
    1. A record for wrhospital.com to IP1 with RARP
    2. A record for www.wrhospital.com to IP1
    3. A record for mailserver.wrhospital.com to IP2 with RARP
    4. MX record for wrhospital.com to mailserver.wrhospital.com with high
priority

When someone emails jdoe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx it should go to
jdoe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
But it does not.  It goes the RAQ4 server of wrhospital.com and since no
user called jdoe exist on wrhospital.com, it rejects the email.

Note: we are an ISP, users are behind us and use us as DNS and connection.
