you need to setup an MX for "domain.tld", that returns mail.domain.tld domain.tld MX 10 mail.domain.tld MTAs will use the A record of the domain only when no MX is found. to test this, you can use host -t mx domain.tld > I know this may not be so related to postfix, but it is very probable > that some of you know the answer. > > Thank you in advance! > > Lepe
