This was a RaQ3/3i, right? In your Control Panel > E-mail Parameters >
'Host/Domain Aliases' field, do you have both included, as in

webappguru.net, www.webappguru.net

That'd be the first thing I'd check. If you are already set up this way,
delete them both, save changes all the way back out, and then go back a
re-add them both.

In case that doesn't work, you can try something else. This might not be the
best answer, and I'm sure with a little time the guru's of the list will
respond with a more elegant solution. But in any case, here's what I do:

Contrary to the 'official' way of doing things, I set up my DNS as follows:

A record     www.domain.com > IP
A record     domain.com > IP
A record     mail.domain.com > IP
MX record domain.com is served by the high priority mail server
mail.domain.com

Then in the email aliases field for the site, I add domain.com and
mail.domain.com. Works like a charm for me. (Though it should work just the
same the official way as well...I just like using mail.domain.com,
personally)

Very nice site, by the way.

Good luck,

Brandon
