Accepting mail, but not passing on...

Post by mattjgalloway »

Hey,

Rollernet is accepting email for my domain, 9knollcroft.co.uk but it's not passing it on to my default mail server which is at mail.9knollcroft.co.uk.

I tried testing by telnetting to mail.rollernet.us and mail2.rollernet.us. With both the test emails seemed to end up in the mail.rollernet.us queue!

I recently changed the DNS records as my IP changed, but every DNS search I do comes up with the correct details - so could it just be rollernet's dns which is giving the wrong info here?

Any advice much appreciated!

By the way - GREAT service!!!!!!!!!!

Here's the error message on our end:

Code: Select all

deferred (connect to mail.9knollcroft.co.uk[81.155.90.248]: Connection timed out)
I gather that is not be the correct IP address, but that's what is currently in our DNS caches. Although this will resolve itself when the entry expires in our caches and it's forced to do a fresh lookup (expiration times are controlled by the TTL values you set), I'll go ahead clear it manually.
