I have this: www.my.dom IN A a.a.a.a my.dom IN MX 10 b.b.b.b I want to do my.dom IN A a.a.a.a so http://www.my.dom and http://my.dom leads to the same webserver. I have tried, and sendmail properly delivers to b.b.b.b But will any mailer use the A record and send to the webserver at a.a.a.a instead of the MX'ed mailserver at b.b.b.b? If so I'd have to allow the webserver to relay for all the domains it is hosting; sendmail will properly relay all misdirected mail using the MX-record.
