Looks like your nameservers are not configured to direct mail to you If everything works, you should get FOUR copies of this. --NO, sorry. [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] The message could not be sent because one of the recipients was rejected by the server. Server Response: "571 Unable to determine MX host for [EMAIL PROTECTED]" (You should also get some good advice from some people who actually know something. Me, I'm involved because I'm trying to LEARN something) (Microsoft's idea of user-friendly EXCLUDES cut&paste from error-message dialog boxes. IE helpful only as long as you don't really need help;) -bash-3.00$ host -t MX skyblue.mine.nu -bash-3.00$ host skyblue.mine.nu skyblue.mine.nu has address 24.0.102.157 -bash-3.00$ host server.skyblue.mine.nu server.skyblue.mine.nu is an alias for skyblue.mine.nu. skyblue.mine.nu has address 24.0.102.157 server.skyblue.mine.nu is an alias for skyblue.mine.nu. server.skyblue.mine.nu is an alias for skyblue.mine.nu. -bash-3.00$ host -t MX server.skyblue.mine.nu server.skyblue.mine.nu is an alias for skyblue.mine.nu.
