Full Version: MX Records?
The Planet Forums > System Administration > DNS Hosting

So have anybody figured out how to setup MX records for nonprimary domains on a different IP? IT turns out that the tutorial on this forum is only for 1 domain, which is gleefully left out that fact, so all other domains cannot accept emails.

So, does anybody have a fix for this?

Example...

http://dnsreport.com/tools/dnsreport.ch?do...in=unformed.com

At the bottom, it claims I do not have any email server nor mx records, which is 100% false. I havent been able to get emails due to this bug.

It looks fine to me. There is a warning on the MX section, but that is expected since you havin only one MX records. Also, the mail section is ok too.

Do you still having problem with emails in this domain?

Not any more, found a little trick on a google search that was never mentioned anywhere.... when creating your mx record, you dont go

mail.domain.com

you go

domain.com


Its a small change, but it took out all of the lame errors, and was mentioned nowhere else... really weird.
