[cobalt-users] 550 Host unknown



Hello,
I am about to do some work for a client whose domain name is www.domain.com
. They already have a website and email for this domain with another ISP.
Their current email addresses take the form jblogs@xxxxxxxxxx or
jblogs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The website I am about to develop needs PHP, which their current host cannot
offer, and thus I wish to host their website only on my Raq4 server.

I had setup their new virtual site, but only included the new Address A
records in the DNS Control Panel.

However, at this time I started to get 550 Host unknown when sending email
to thier email addresses. I guess that my server is getting confused, as am
I.

I have now deleted the domain from the server, and have erased all DNS
entries, but am still getting bounces when I send email to the domain. Does
it take some time for this DNS info to propogate?

Can somebody post the steps needed to setup web services only for a this
type of virtual site.

Thanks,
Declan.
