Ok, I setup an A record for mail.domain.net, I can send and receive mail
from it now,(from: admin@xxxxxxxxxx - to: admin@domain,net). But when I try
to send mail from another address (from: john_doe@xxxxxxxxx to:
admin@xxxxxxxxxx), I get the following error.

Your message cannot be delivered to the following recipients:

  Recipient address: admin@xxxxxxxxxx
  Reason: Illegal host/domain name found

Any ideas on what's going on?
