Right. The mail should be going to inbound.crandell.net.criticalpath.net, not ocicat.crandell.net. > Here is what dig dug: > root@ocicat:/etc# dig crandell.net Try 'dig crandell.net MX', or you won't get the mx record, which is what you want.

No, unless you were just addressing the mail as 'To: JohnL' (unqualified here means without hostname, hence, null is localhost). But you shouldn't need to mess with that if ocicat knows the right MX record. ocicat is using a relay (@criticalpath.net?) anyway, right? Then you have even less to mess with. -- <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Eug-LUG mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.efn.org/cgi-bin/listinfo/eug-lug
