Ok, I change the addresses to include brackets and will try to see if it
works OK.

The reason you got different results than what I sent in my mail is that the
mailserver use another DNS, that you can not reach. This is also the reason
the addresses are not routed over internet.

That's one of your problems. Courier is trying to send mail to your domain through "mail1.skyitl.se" which is NOT routeable on the internet. I can't get an ip address for it.

# more /etc/courier/esmtproutes
skyitl.se: 172.24.99.31
mail.skyitl.se: 172.24.99.31

That's your other problem. If you are going to route to ip addresses then need to be in brackets. Courier is trying here to send to a host called "172.24.99.31", NOT an ip address. So

skyitl.se: [172.24.99.31]

will solve your problem.  Now courier will send all mail for the skyitl.se
domain to that ip address.  But you ought to get your dns fixed as well.

Interestingly enough when I do a lookup I get different results.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] jeff]$ testmxlookup skyitl.se
Domain skyitl.se:
Relay: mail.skyitl.se, Priority: 200, Address: ::ffff:194.237.242.110
Relay: www.skyitl.se, Priority: 230, Address: ::ffff:195.54.149.250
Relay: ns.flysta.net, Priority: 500, Address: ::ffff:192.121.126.10

These appear to be correct in that it references "mail.skyitl.se" as the
primary mail server.

Hope that helps.
