I have one server with multiple IP addresses. For example, bennettconstruction.us at one IP, with A record mx.bennettconstruction.us at the same machine, different IP with it's own A record. Plus, several other website and mail domains on the same server. In each case, each has it's own A record and IP, one for a domain name, the other for it's mail domain. bennettconstruction.us 1.2.3.4 mx.bennettconstruction.us 1.2.3.5 moron.org 1.2.3.6 mail.moron.org 1.2.3.7 wisecracker.com 1.2.3.8 mx.wisecracker.com 1.2.3.9 I'm trying to get the proper mail server to match the sent From: domain. Also, with this switch changing the hostname, root now comes through bennettconstruction.us instead of the other one that was the hostname before. The change in hostname was planned. In case it's relevant, I always use ssh and neomutt to the server for reading and sending. I only use K9 on my phone to read or click a link. Thank you for putting up with my hard to understand posts. It's not deliberate, but a lifelong problem. -- Chris Bennett
