I have a 1and1 root server. Setting things up has gone pretty fair so far. My past experience is BSD and Sendmail, this is Fedora 2 and Courier/Qmail.
Checking the boards here first, I have tried several different ways of sending mail through.
1and1(s) default, which is supposed to send through to my server, then to 1and1, and also setting up a mail.mydomain.com.com record in 1and1s Control panel and having mydlomain.com mx record point to it.
The users are set up in Plesk on the server.
For instance, with ohmygodno.com
The message I get when sending an email to a user on the new server is
Mail server responded 5.1.1 <[email protected]> user unknown.
I am thinking it is a DNS issue, but I haven't been able to track it down any further. I am willing to point to the Plesk server as the name server, but only have one server, not two. I would prefer a solution that allows me to continue to use 1and1.com name servers, only because my knowledge of DNS is sketchy at the moment....I've done some work with it, but not tons.
pinging mail.ohmygodno.com does return the correct IP of the server.
Looking for direction, diagnostics that I can run...basically a solution. Once the email is working I can migrate my clients and close down the old server at another provider. Until then, no emergencies, but I'd like to get it done.
TIA.
