Host unknown (Name server: > mail.maxcalvo.net.maxcalvo.net.: host not found) Take a look at your DNS settings: maxcalvo.net. NS ns1.maxcalvo.net maxcalvo.net. NS ns2.maxcalvo.net maxcalvo.net. MX 10 mail.maxcalvo.net mgd A 206.80.218.244 worldwidejewels.com MX 10 mail.maxcalvo.net mail CNAME mgd.maxcalvo.net Your MX and CNAME records need to have .'s at the end of names, or they are assumed to be subdomains of the current domain. For example, without the . mail.maxcalvo.net as defined in your MX rec becomes mail.maxcalvo.net.maxcalvo.net -- the address that is not resolving. Change the records to look like this: maxcalvo.net. MX 10 mail.maxcalvo.net. worldwidejewels.com MX 10 mail.maxcalvo.net. mail CNAME mgd.maxcalvo.net. re-start BIND, and you should be good to go. -joshua --- Joshua Ellis - Kimberly-Clark Internet/Intranet/Notes Services email: ellis@kcc.com * phone: 920/721-2779 * fax: 920/721-6180 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
