I have somehow encountered a mail loop. The same message keeps getting sent
over and over. I've tried everything to stop it. I've tried putting the ip
addresses in the no access file etc. Well here's the log file generated.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] is forwarded to another mail server
mailworks1.networkscom.com, I also set a rule to have this message go to the
virus box, but because this account is forwarded I had to use the".," to
even get the rule to work, now the imail server sends a copy to the virus
box and forwards it to it's destination. The imail server is
mail1.eonbusiness.com Please HELP

Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] Alias for a Mail Host
Jamees,
As Shaun pointed out, the issues are not just internal to Imail but also in
DNS.
For every possible recipient host or domain after the @, you need to have
an MX for reliable delivery, and you can't actually have "too many", so
here one of yr pb's:
# dig netmajik.com mx
; <<>> DiG 8.2 <<>> netmajik.com mx
;; res options: init recurs defnam dnsrch
;; got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 4
;; flags: qr aa rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 1, ADDITIONAL: 0
;; QUERY SECTION:
;; netmajik.com, type = MX, class = IN
;; AUTHORITY SECTION:
netmajik.com. 1H IN SOA ns1.netmajik.com.
administrator.netmajik.com. (
14 ; serial
1H ; refresh
10M ; retry
1D ; expiry
1H ) ; minimum
which is an error good, just fix the above like this one:
# dig ns1.netmajik.com mx
; <<>> DiG 8.2 <<>> ns1.netmajik.com mx
;; res options: init recurs defnam dnsrch
;; got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 4
;; flags: qr aa rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 1
;; QUERY SECTION:
;; ns1.netmajik.com, type = MX, class = IN
;; ANSWER SECTION:
ns1.netmajik.com. 1H IN MX 10 ns1.netmajik.com.
;; ADDITIONAL SECTION:
ns1.netmajik.com. 1H IN A 64.50.158.132
The above error also listed DNS Expert report, sent privately.
