Some servers can't send mail to a client.

The mx records are client.dom mx 50 mail.client.dom client.dom mx 100 mail.our.dom These are real names, not cnames. But sometimes, this client can't receive mail; the sender gets a message from qmail, I think, complaining it can't find the host client.dom client.dom doesn't have an ip-adress, only the mx'es shown above. Is the senders MTA broken? Do I have to make a workaround by giving client.dom a cname or an ip-adress too? If so, it probably should be mail.our.dom, I guess To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
