As I said yesterday:

Imail hostname:  domain.com

hostname alias:  mail.domain.com

>also i was not sure if this is why i cannot email
>certain domains.

you need MX and A records out the gazoo:

domain.com.       MX 10 imail.somewhere.com.
mail.domain.com.  MX 10 imail.somewhere.com.

domain.com.            A ip.ad.re.s1
mail.domain.com.       A ip.ad.re.s2

and of course you need MX and A records for imail.somewhere.com.

How to hack the registry to change the domain name is in the 
KB.  It's easy, RegEdit32 is a GUI.  :))
