Web and DNS but not Email

[hci]

How do you tell DA that web and DNS will be hosted but the email will be hosted at another provider? Just updating DNS settings does not do it. Other email users on same box do not pick up the change.

Go to the User-Level for the domain in question in DirectAdmin. Under the Email Management menu, click on the MX Records link.

In there, disable this setting: Local Mail Server

That will force DirectAdmin to do a DNS lookup (for the actual MX records) when delivering email to that particular domain from other users on the same server.
