Hi, I have trouble setting up Postfix (2.1.4-5) sending mail (receiving mail works fine) on an up to date sarge system.
I have no local DNS-server running on that machine. DNS queries with dig or host works fine! My Problem: When I try to send mail with Postfix (i.e. to [EMAIL PROTECTED]), Postfix starts a correct DNS-query for the MX-Record of web.de. (I have done a tcpdump to verify that). Postfix also gets the correct answer (mx-ha01.web.de in this example). But than postfix didn't start a DNS-query for the A-Record of the MX-Host (as I can see in the output from tcpdump). Instead Postfix writes to syslog: Sep 28 17:34:56 host postfix/smtp[12455]: warning: no MX host for web.de has a valid A record Why can Postfix start an correct DNS-query for the MX-Record but isn't going to ask the DNS-server for the A-Record of the MX-Host?
