Issue Qmail error : "Failure : this address no longer accepts mail"

J0R1SK

New Pleskian
Hello,

Our organization is using Google Workspace to send and receive emails with ourdomain.com.
Google needs a specific DNS config as you may know, so I added the following in the OVH parameters:

Nom/hébergeur/aliasValeur TTL (Time to Live*)Type d'enregistrementPrioritéValeur/Réponse/Destination
@ ou laisser vide3 600MX1ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
@ ou laisser vide3 600MX5ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
@ ou laisser vide3 600MX5ALT2.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
@ ou laisser vide3 600MX10ALT3.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
@ ou laisser vide3 600MX10ALT4.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM

When a WordPress website is installed on our Plesk server, we use the Contact Form 7 plugin but it seems that all emails from our own domain are not sent.

Here is the Qmail log I have each time:

2022-02-03 16:48:04qmail[22200]delivery 31: failure: This_address_no_longer_accepts_mail./

But emails are working with external domains (ex: [email protected]), it is only messy with our domain name.
Do you have an idea of the problem it could be?

I tried a lot of things but nothing worked yet:
- Changing Mail server settings
- Changing DNS Settings,
- Adding Smtproutes via the SSH Terminal,
- Checking the WP configuration,
- Checking OVH DNS settings,
- Etc.

But I guess there is something messy somewhere. If you have a clue or need more details about something, please post a comment on this post.

Thank you!

PS: I read this post before posting but it is still not solved today...
 
Did you make sure that mail services for your domain have been disabled in Plesk?
Domain => Mail => UNcheck the box "Active mail services for this domain".

If mails for your domain are not handled by Plesk then you need to disable mail services for that domain, otherwise the server will try to deliver the mail locally instead of delivering it to Google
 
Hi Monty, thanks for your reply!

Yes this box is already unchecked, the problem is coming from other settings.

What is really strange is that personal Gmail accounts are working well with Plesk, we only have the problem with our internal Google Workspace domains + Plesk. So I guess it may be a conflict with Google deliveries?
 
Same problem unfortunately...

When I add Google Workspace DNS directly in Plesk, they are not recognized by the admin. But when I add them in OVH settings, they work.
Maybe I am missing a parameter or I have an unwanted loop somewhere...
