[isp-dns] MX record need help please.

["Joe Lange" <jlange@...]

Hello,

I am trying to set up a mail gateway/filter and forward the mail to a inside
mail server all my users are using mail.mydomain.com for there main incoming
and outgoing mail server and I am trying to avoid changing 2000 mail clients
settings I have set up the MX to point to the gateway/filter box but outside
mail never reaches there and I get no errors the email just dissapears. If I
can get the mail to the gateway I am sure it will forward to the main
server. Anyone know why this setup isn't working ??


These Ips are routable I am just using the 192.168.0.X for this example.

mydomain.com.                                    IN NS
ns1.mynameserver.com.
ftp.mydomain.com.                               IN A    192.168.0.4
webmail.mydomain.com.                      IN A    192.168.0.4
www.mydomain.com                           IN A    192.168.0.4
mail.mydomain.com.                            IN A    192.168.0.8      (our
main mail server)
mydomain.com.                                   IN MX  10
mypostfixbox.otherdomain.com. (Gateway box using postfix and a ip of
192.168.0.7 but the FDQ is in another domain)

Thanks!
