I have a question which I am told might be non-standard method in setting up the routing of local mail through our cPanel server. As of right now our MX Records are currently pointing to Google APPs as they are managing our email accounts. We also have the server setup as a Local Mail Exchanger which allows Google to route emails back to our server if the account does not exist on their end. We do this as we have three email accounts that need to remain our end. One is piped to a PHP Script, another is used when the server coughs up an error, and the last is used for our online contact form.
As it stands now, everything is working except the server cannot send emails to accounts that are setup over at Google. I fully understand the difference between a Local Mail Exchanger and a Remote Mail Exchanger, so I know where the problem lies. When I play with the options of switching them around here is what happens between the two; the solution I am looking is for everything listed below to work with one of those setting turned on. If I have Local Mail Exchanger setting turned on (number 4 does not work) 1. If someone emails one of our accounts the routing from our servers to Google works as emails are received. 2. If an account does not exist with Google, the routing of the emails back to our server works as the piped PHP script receives the request and executes accordingly. 3. When the server emails an account on the server that is not setup with Google it works. 4. When the server emails an account that is setup through Google, it does not work and generates a no such user error. If I have Remote Mail Exchanger setting turned on (number 2 and 3 do not work) 1. If someone emails one of our accounts the routing from our servers to Google works as emails are received. 2. If an account does not exist with Google, the routing of the emails back to our server does not work as this domain no longer as permission to receive and process emails. 3. When the server emails an account on the server that is not setup with Google it does not work as this domain no longer as permission to process and send emails. 4. When the server emails an account that is setup through Google, it does work. I am in a catch 22 here and would like to know what solution can I do to make this work? Thanks. -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
