Somebody please help me out here. I have checked everything and can't seem to
find the problem. When I send a message to david@wssch.k12.sc.us, this is the
error I get:
- SNIP SNIP -
----- The following addresses have delivery notifications -----
<david@wssch.k12.sc.us> (unrecoverable error)
----- Transcript of session follows -----
554 MX list for wssch.k12.sc.us. points back to wareshoals.wssch.k12.sc.us
554 <david@wssch.k12.sc.us>... Local configuration error
[ Part 2: "Included Message" ]
Reporting-MTA: dns; wareshoals.wssch.k12.sc.us
Received-From-MTA: DNS; emerald-internet-ser.Greensboro.mci.net
- SNIP SNIP -
There is only one server, "wareshoals", and it handles the DNS and mail. Here
is the entry in my domain.db file:
@ IN SOA wssch.k12.sc.us. hostmaster.wssch.k12.sc.us. (
9 ; Serial number
172800 ; Refresh every 2 days
3600 ; Retry every hour
1728000 ; Expire every 20 days
172800 ); Minimum 2 days
;
IN NS wareshoals.wssch.k12.sc.us.
IN NS simba.smatnet.net.
IN MX 5 wareshoals.wssch.k12.sc.us.
;
localhost IN A 127.0.0.1
;
wareshoals IN A 205.160.98.50
IN MX 10 wareshoals.wssch.k12.sc.us.
What am I doing wrong? When I send to the host + domain name,
david@wareshoals.wssch.k12.sc.us, it works just fine, but not when I use the
domain only. Any ideas?
