If you have a host file setup it will not ask the DNS server. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David Johnson Sent: Monday, September 26, 2005 10:23 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: X-IMail-SPAM-Connection RE: [IMail Forum] I associate the domain name with the IP Address but...
Yes I did setup an MX record for the particular mail box. I had also setup the host file accordingly but the mail still gets returned. Would my DSN server have any effect on the host file? My DNS basically acts as a forwarder (caching server).

Did you add the A record for the host and the MX record? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David Johnson Sent: Monday, September 26, 2005 8:18 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] I associate the domain name with the IP Address but...

Do you use a private or public DNS server. We use a private DNS server for name resolution and I would just add that domain and all of its records there.

Hi, I included the IP address and hostname in the HOST file in the WINNT folder (if there is another HOST file I should be using, please let me know), but the messages still keep returning to me. The IMail server was restarted but still nothing. Any other ideas?
