Would someone be prepared to mail me directly and try and help me sort out
my IMAIL installation as I cannot get it receiving mail at all.
I will try and give as much info here as possible to explain my problem.
I am running NT Server4 on my machine and I have little idea of setting up
a mail server.
TCP/IP settings
HOST: SATACHI
DOMAIN: SATACHI.COM (originally this was mitoo.co.uk where my server is
located, but changing it had no affect)
I have 3 IP's setup, the main one being 195.52.73.154 for satachi.com, but
satachi.co.uk also points here.
My host has setup satachi.co.uk in the dns and mx record as
mail.satachi.co.uk to point to 195.52.73.154
Now my first question is, do I need any IP addresses at all to be assigned
to mail hosts, or can they all be virtual. I intend to have satachi.com
setup when I get it working, but for now it is on my hosts mailserver, so I
am just using satachi.co.uk as a virtual host for testing purposes.
Firstly I setup satachi.com (195.52.73.154) as the first host and
mail.satachi.co.uk as a virtual host ($virtual001), but I am not sure on
the naming procedure here.
Do I use the name in the mx record or as the docs seem to suggest, the name
of my machine followed by the name of the domain, i.e satachi.satachi.co.uk
Anyway I have tried all various formats of this, and have deleted the
satachi.com host altogether and tried assigning satachi.co.uk to the IP but
nowt works.
I can check the account and send mail to it, but it is never arriving there
nor does it get bounced back.
Anyone feeling kind enough to help me out.
