Bounce on user email account

Hello,

I have an odd problem I haven't been able to figure out. When you setup a new user, there is a user email account that is created with the same user as the account, which many users don't seem to use. However, I have a client that does use this account and for some reason I am getting the following bounce. Other email accounts that were setup separately work fine.

Email headers from my Gmail account when trying to send to this email address. I tested it on a couple other system user email accounts, and those bounce the same way. I am guessing some kind of permissions issue? Other than this, the site loads fine, and other emails created under the account work fine as well.

Any help would be appreciated.
 
Look at the mail logs

Retry timeout means it cannot contact the mx for the domain.
 
Well nothing comes through the logs at all. I just checked the MX record at mxtoolbox and it's responding correctly. If I send to any other user that was setup separately under the same domain it goes through just fine, it's just that user generated email when a new account is setup in DA.
 
Looks like we got it resolved. At one point this machine was renamed and the new box name wasn't listed in /etc/virtual/domains. For these email accounts, they are basically forwarded to [email protected] and it wasn't able to find that.

So we are good.. thank you for you input.
 
If you change the hostname there is a script in /usr/local/directadmin/scripts you should run called hostname.sh
