Once again, you are posting code and errors that don't go with each other. Your MX record does not point to mail.superhost.gr but to superhost.gr itself. This makes it extremely difficult to help you. EXTREMELY. Two options: Either edit your bind file manually OR use some other tool for viewing and editing it. If the latter, the bindfile is utterly meaningless - look at the other tool. If the former, I would rewrite your zone file like this: -- cut -- $TTL 14400 @ 86400 IN SOA ns1.superhost.gr. nikosgr33k.gmail.com. ( 2013092903 ;Serial Number 86400 ;refresh 7200 ;retry 3600000 ;expire 86400 ) @ 86400 IN NS ns1 @ 86400 IN NS ns2 @ IN A 84.200.17.58 @ IN MX 0 @ mail IN CNAME @ www IN CNAME @ ftp IN CNAME @ -- cut -- The changes I've made are: 1) Remove the massive duplication of your domain name, mainly by using the shorthand "@". (There are other shorthands you can use, too.) 2) Remove the dot from your email address. Currently your official address is ni...@gr33k.gmail.com which is flat-out wrong. Fortunately for you, Gmail will accept nikosgr...@gmail.com no problem. 3) Eliding the TTLs where they're the same as your default 4) Removing the entry for localhost.superhost.gr which you shouldn't really be using - it'll only confuse matters. Use localhost as a TLD - that's how it's set up. Aside from #2 and #4, this shouldn't actually change your DNS records, but it'll make your bindfile that much easier to read and work with. Of course, if you're editing the file with some other program, don't do this at all. Just use that other program. ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
