What I see is:

meetingtoolsandjewels.com/MX resolves to m1.dnsix.com with preference 0.

meetingsmaven.typepad.com/MX doesn't resolve at all from typepad.com's nameservers, but meetingsmaven.typepad.com/A does.

Maybe it was just a poorly-executed migration?

Hey list,

I have the following issue. A customer hosts a domain with me,
facplus.com. Her primary email account is on that domain, we'll call
it [email protected]. She has also registered another name through
Dotster, meetingtoolsandjewels.com. Dotster provides her with URL
redirection and email forwarding for that domain. She has setup an
email address, we'll call it [email protected], which
should forward to [email protected].

We've been having a problem where not all senders are being received
when mail is sent to the [email protected] account. I've
sent her test emails from gmail, yahoo and my own server (sendmail)
and all were received. When I send emails from systems using exchange,
I eventually get a bounce that the message has been delayed...it's
never received.

When I do digs for the MX record for meetingtoolsandjewels.com I get a CNAME:

[r...@jump1 ~]# dig meetingtoolsandjewels.com MX

If I do digs against her actual nameservers, I get a correct MX
record. What the heck am I seeing here and is this the likely cause of
the delayed emails?

Thanks,
Brad
