So, for a machine running a mail server NOT to be a "mail domain gateway" it does not receive mail from the Internet for a particular domain AND does not host a mail server receiving/sending mail within a domain?

What kinds of hosts/mail servers are not a "mail domain gateway?

There are times I feel more thick than others...

Hello,

I have some notion about what email is, about what a domain is, and

Right-hand side of email address.

about what a gateway (routing) is, but I don't know what a "mail domain
gateway" is.

Typically the host(s) that receive(s) email from the internet to
a particular internet domain, but may also indicate the host(s)
that deliver mail from local clients within a particular internet
domain.

I have searched for this and I am getting a lot of information to the
effect that "On a mail domain # gateway, you should also include $mydomain".

So I know what to do if I have a "mail domain gateway". That's good.

All I need now is to know if I have one...

TIA
