• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

qmail unable to resolve MX record

leonidasj

New Pleskian
I am running a server using Plesk 10.2.0 on debian 2.6.32-5-amd64

One of my customers tried to send an email but received a bounce message from the daemon.

Sorry, I couldn't find a mail exchanger or IP address. (#5.4.4)

After some research i found the according article at the Parallels KB which concludes stating "This message means that Qmail failed to get the MX and A records for the 'destination_server'. In other words, the destination server is not resolved"

This, of course, is not very helpful. I then logged on to the server per SSH and tried to dig the MX record, which worked perfectly fine.

dig domain-masked.org MX
...
;; ANSWER SECTION:
domain-masked.org. 85282 IN MX 10 mail.domain-masked.org.

Could anyone point me to the right direction here? Why is this happening? And what can i do to resolve the issue?

Thank You!
