Email delivery problem when mx record is set on different server

[jasne]

Hi

I've just added domain.com to my directadmin and changed in DNS records:

MAIL MX 10
MAIL A 1.2.3.4
WWW A 5.5.5.5

Where 1.2.3.4 is different server IP
5.5.5.5 is my server IP

Now from domain2.com( where is parked on my server 5.5.5.5) im trying send email [email protected] but I've recived an error
that user name doesn't exist on server 5.5.5.5 .... ok, but user name exist on server (1.2.3.4). How to "tell" my server that should skip checking user name
on localhost and try use proper email server 1.2.3.4 ?

Check this:

If you wish to use a remote Mailserver, a few changes will need to be made.

1) Go to User Panel -> domain.com -> Email -> MX Records

There should be an option for "Local Mail Server". Uncheck that option.

2) You'll need to change the MX dns record to point to the external mailserver. Remove the "mail" MX record and add "other.domain.com." as the new MX record where that is the domain of the other server.

** If you do not have the MX Records menu in your DirectAdmin User Level login, then ask your hosting provider to enable the DNS Control option for your account.
