I see your DNS is at register.com. You have an A record for your web site and that is working fine. Now you need to setup the MX record because when I query the DNS for one, it comes back empty. Look in your DNS control panel in the register.com where you setup the www. You should see somet

I've done that...about 6 days ago. I set it up to point to mail.bstastjohns.com and of course changed the A record for mail.bstastjohns.com to the current IP. Do I need to set up TXT records or add a PTR or is that more than I need? Cameron - Original Message - From: "Phil Leinhauser"

Could the strange hostname be causing the problem or is the PTR record? Eventually that machine will also host the mail.dot11net.com mail as well. The bstastjohns.com is really just for testing. How do I change the hostname. When I look at my network file here is what I get: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~

Cameron: If you are using SpamDyke, or another anti-spam, you may need to create a PTR record for your DNS: that is, make the Internet (Public) IP Address of your server reverse-resolve to something like bstastjohns.com (or, if you ONLY do mail on that IP Address, mail.bstastjohns.com -- I pr

I have found that filtering mail that doesn't have PTR (Reverse) is not a good idea. Most service providers don't give you the delegation for the reverse so therefore you have to contact them to set it for you in their servers. This is mostly because most people just don't understand DNS forwa

Sorry, but I have to disagree with you. You are correct: getting your ISP to delegate rDNS control can be difficult. But ISPs are willing to do that for "business class" accounts. On my own servers, approximately 30% of all connections are rejected due to missing rDNS. I also filter connect
