cant send email to hotmail user

hi, i just change the ip address to 72.21.11.84? as stated you all ask me change the nameserver from ns1.vogueb2b.com to ns1.sgvogue.com ?

Im not sure which part is wrong?
in the shell access,
i type cd var, cd named
then after press dir
it appears
72.21.11.82.db named.broadcast named.zero slaves
data named.ca raostudio.com.db vogueb2b.com.db
localdomain.zone named.ip6.local sghit.com.db voguematch.com.db
localhost.zone named.local sgvogue.com.db

so i just did vi sgvogue.com.db to retrieve the above file. Im not sure if this is the file?
 
From the output you posted on the previous page I would also conclude that the zone file of sgvogue is corrupt.

Looking at the information you have posted so far, a normal zone file for sgvogue (assuming no special extra records were setup and assuming sgvogue uses its own ns1 and ns2) would look like this:

Code:
# [b]cd /var/named[/b]
# [b]cat sgvogue.com.db[/b]

It was time to try.

I just tried sending an email to a hotmail account using telnet, as a test.

My hostname is NOT the same as my sending from address domain, but it IS the same as pointed to by my reverse DNS.

Everything appears to work; I got a 250 response when I typed in the envelope from and envelope to.

And I got:
250 <[email protected]> Queued mail for delivery
after I sent the message and followed it with an end-of-message character-combination.

We'll see if my friend gets it and replies :) .

jeff_tp,

Aspegic has attempted to give you the answer.

If it's your server and it's not properly creating DNS zone files you need to figure out why. I'd say try deleting and recreating the zone file through DA and see how it gets recreated.

Note that deleting the zone file will make your domain disappear from the 'net.

So you should know how to recreate it properly before you delete it.

If it's recreated improperly then you'll have to figure out how your template file got corrupted.

There's lots of information on these forums on how the DNS template files work, and how to change them.

If you cannot take the time to figure it out yourself, you should either ask for free help from someone logging into your system, or ask DA for support, or purchase third-party administration help from someone.

We're in the systems administration and support business. We're not what most people would call cheap.

You need:
ns1 A 72.21.11.84
ns2 A 72.21.11.84

as well as the NS records that you already have.
 
ftp A 72.21.11.84
localhost A 127.0.0.1
mail A 72.21.11.84
ns1 A 72.21.11.84

sgvogue.com. NS ns2.sgvogue.com.
mail MX 10
sgvogue.com. TXT "v=spf1 a mx ip4:72.21.11.84 ?all"

I think you meant to say NS2 A 72.21.11.85 ?
Not that it would matter much, there are so many issues with sgvogue.com and vogueb2b.com. Just look at the dnsreports:
http://dnsreport.com/tools/dnsreport.ch?domain=sgvogue.com
http://dnsreport.com/tools/dnsreport.ch?domain=vogueb2b.com


@jeff_tp: I really think you need to find someone who can help you fix the DNS problems first, someone with access to your server, before you can even think about solving the hotmail problem. This problem is more complicated than just a few missing A records.

Yup, you're right, I missed that one. I was more trying to point out that you need the A records, not just the NS records.

And I agree with Aspegic, you should get someone knowagable about Linux/Unix admin to get things setup properly before you go further.
 
hi, i have changed the required setting, i temporary dun care about vogueb2b, n concentrate on sgvogue.com

so what are required to make sure hotmail user can receive message? thanks
 
jeff_tp,

Two people have already suggested you need to fix your DNS before you do anything else.

I'm the third.

If you can't do it (there are lots of posts on these forums to help you) then you should find someone who can.

The errors are shown here.
