Yep or you could just use two A records one for each name. > Am I correct in assuming that making mail.radzinschi.com map to > 65.8.33.207 and making radzinschi.com an alias for mail.radzinschi.com > should allow my mail to go through? > Depends on the mailer config. Chances are if you were mailing me it would bounce due to your claimed forward and reverse records not matching. Again this is down to the postmaster and how 'strict' he wishes to make his server. Informally you should use your isp to get mail out, using your own server to pump out to the net is a bad idea in my view, especially considering your .home.com domain name ;-) > Thank You, > > Marco Radzinschi HTH, Si. -- Simon Griffiths Systems Administrator - Clay Cross Building Society Tel:+44(0)1246 862120 - Fax: +44(0)1246 250397 "All of the crud above is my own, not my employers etc." To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
