Hi there,
I am in trouble with some email setup and probably with DNS settings. I am kindly asking your help, as it seems that I am loosing emails currently.
I am the hoster of my account, as I have a DirectAdmin server which I own. I use this for hosting my clients' websites and emails as well. For years I prefered Gooogle Apps, as it offered huge disk space for each mailbox and helped me keeping my server without extra traffic for emails. I prefered this solution for my own emails as well, but I have changed my mind the last months, as Google's mail server seems to be responding much more slower than my own server, which is hosted in a Greek datacenter and offers cutting edge performance
My reseller's account hosts my own domain (pla.net.gr) which had the necessary DNS records in order to deliver the emails to Google's mail servers. Last night I created all the email accounts on my server and I changed the necessary A & MX records, by deleting all the "Google" related records and creating just an "A" record for "mail" pointing my server's IP and a "mail" MX record with priority "10". I also had a look on some other clients' accounts what I settings I had on their DNS zones and I realized that it was just that. Of course I mean on clients' account that they host their emails on my server...
After several hours (half a day) I noticed that the propagation is completed (http://www.whatsmydns.net/#MX/pla.net.gr, http://www.whatsmydns.net/#A/mail.pla.net.gr) but unfortunatelly I have serious issues. I am trying to send emails from my Gmail and Hotmail account to my some of my domain's email addresses I have created and I am getting the following errors:
Gmail:
Hotmail:
Also I am trying to send emails from my accounts ([email protected], [email protected], etc) and I am getting the following error:
I would appreciate if someone could help me with this issue. I tried several things. I also restarted exim service (I read it on another post of this forum as a solution), but nothing changed. Also I need to specify that all the other email accounts of all the other domain names that are hosted on my server works perfect!!!
Thanks a lot in advance!
Kind regards,
