[cobalt-users] DNS / e-mail problem web site works but not e-mail



Howdy all,

I'm experiencing a similar problem. I'm on a RAQ4. After I installed the latest updates from Sun I started having problems with domains 1 by one. As I would update a disk quota in the control panel or reset the FP extensions or add in PHP. Each domain in turn would have MX issues. Mail would bounce for user in that domain only.

At this point my solutions is to ssh into the box, move the website to a safe place and actually delete the domain (but not the DNS records, adjusting those had no effect, nor did adjusting the mailserver relay records). I then recreated the domain. Moved the site back to the new home directory, and restablished the users.

I have no figured out why the cobalt admin domain settings corrupt the MX settings. I now have to work through 40 plus domains and users for each.

If anyone knows whats up. Please give me a heads up.

Yes the 208 is a typo but a typo on the DNS of my server. It has been fixed
but fixing it did not change my problem.

Is that 208 a typo?
 209.198.23.208/24      flowers123.com
Everything else is 218?

I have a Raq 4r and a Raq 3i.  Both have all patches installed.
I use the 4r as a primary name server and the 3i as secondary.
If I use a 3rd party DNS service the e-mail works.  If I setup the
DNS,
the
web site works but not e-mail.  I get an error when sending "The
domain
of
sender address bob@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx does not resolve".
I have worked on this problem on and off for 2 months now.  I have
looked
at
the Cobalt archives as well as other sites with DNS info, but I an a
novice
at this and some of what I read is over my head.  I know I am missing
something but don't know what.
The domain I am trying to setup is flowers123.com.
Below is the DNS info copied from my server.

 flowers123.com      209.198.23.218
 www.flowers123.com      209.198.23.218
 209.198.23.208/24      flowers123.com
 209.198.23.218/24      www.flowers123.com
 flowers123.com   mail is sent to the High priority mail server
flowers123.com

I have also tried changing the MX record to:
flowers123.com -> www.flowers123.com and
flowers123.com -> mail.flowers123.com

but it still did not work.
