Thanks for your help.  One of the domains in question is evilshenanigans.com
which is hosted on my server with domain of shadowpixels.com.  Today I went
ahead and changed back to hosting the dns on my server rather than using
godaddy.

Thanks
Mark

Mark,

I think your problem will go away much quicker if you let us know the domain
in question, we could check the dns settings then, making sure there are no
cnames for either the domain or the mailserver hostname etc.

Regards,

Taco
