The MX record is as follows:
dig -tmx localnet:
;; ANSWER SECTION:
localnet. 86400 IN MX 10 mail.xxxxx.com.
This A record of the mailserver is as follows:
dig -ta mail.xxxxx.com.
;; ANSWER SECTION:
mail.xxxxxxx.com 65995 IN CNAME server.xxxxxx.com
server.xxxxxx.com 42508 IN A 222.333.44.55 (this is a public IP)
The ignore_target_hosts for the dnslookup router is as follows:
ignore_target_hosts = 0.0.0.0 : 127.0.0.0/8 : 192.168.0.0/16 :\
172.16.0.0/12 : 10.0.0.0/8 : 169.254.0.0/16 :\
255.255.255.255
The MX record for localnet is exactly the same as for xxxxx.com and about 5
other virtual domains we host - all of which are working fine. I tried
changing it to point to the A record rather than a CNAME, but same error.
