What is the domain in question? Should be very easy to diagnose. Anyone trying to send mail to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' follows these rules: 1. look up MX records for 'foo.com'. If any are found, deliver to those machines (trying the lowest-preference value MX record first) 2. if no MX records are found, look for an A record for 'foo.com' 3. if no MX or A records are found, bounce the mail Sounds to me like the MX records for the domain are pointing at the wrong server(s).
