Mail problems

John Fleming

Basic Pleskian
Hi all,

I have a problem that has cropped up and I am not sure how to fix it.

I have a domain hosted in Plesk, and the client has setup their own mail server, and so I have configured the MX in Plesk to point to the new server and its working. However, when I try to send him mail I get the following error.

Remote host said: 553 sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts; no valid cert for gatewaying (#5.7.1)

To give you an idea on the infrastructure, this is how it is setup. (example IPs only)

Plesk Server 1.2.3.4
Mail server is also 1.2.3.4 -- I use this to send via Authenticated SMTP

Customers new mail server 5.6.7.8

When I try to send mail, my server (1.2.3.4) bounces back with that above error. I have also switched off mail services for that domain.

What am I missing??

Cheers
John
 
# is that domain listed in /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts ?
# did you try running mcheck to reset qmail settings?
 
Edit the file

Code:
vim /var/qmail/control/virtualdomains

In it delete the domain name that you don't host mail on that plesk server
 
Back
