Still having problems. 

 

PTR for 83.170.92.204 points to mtbe.co.uk and the domain no longer uses
CNAMEs. I still see the same error when I try to email someone at mtbe.co.uk

 

Double-checking, I have mtbe.co.uk as web and email alias, both mtbe and
www.mtbe appear in /etc/mail/local-host-names

you are using CNAMES as your mx record. use A records.

Plus your .204 ip has no ptr - ask your network provider.

Hi All,

I have a site, mtbe.co.uk which is configured on its own IP address on a
server running 5108R.

Main server IP: 83.170.92.155
Site IP: 83.170.92.204

I cannot send email to this site - I get the subject error every time.

This happens whether I use an external SMTP like gmail or use the server
itself for (authenticated) SMTP. In addition, PHP's mail() command gives a
'Service Unavailable' error in /var/log/maillog:

I found a thread in the archives which contains a link to a Solarspeed page:
http://mail.blueonyx.it/pipermail/blueonyx/2010-October/005559.html

Archive.org link (as the page link in the above post is giving an error):

I have everything set up as per these instructions:

I've removed and recreated the entire site and email accounts to no avail. I
have other sites on the server set up on their own IP and they work fine.

I am not, however, responsible for the external (Godaddy?) DNS configuration
on this one. Is this something that can cause this problem?

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Regards,



Dick Dolby
