Daniel,
Let me tell everyone again that Imail works FINE for like 2 days in a row, no problems
whatsoever! Emails destined to my domain (gowebserver.com) and other customers
domains that I host work without any problems.
But then all of a sudden - boom - mail sits in the Queue because you can see it from
the View Queue button.
So let me ask this simple question, why would mail sit in the queue .. especially for
local domains? And why would it just pick right up if I push it a bit with the send
one command?
The reason you see mail.gowebserver.com and mailhost1.gowebserver.com is as follows:
In my DNS I have set up records as such:
"A" Record called mailhost1 pointing to 206.124.163.134
creating a FQDN of mailhost1.gowebserver.com
I also have a "CNAME" record called mail pointing to
mailhost1.gowebserver.com creating a FQDN of mail.gowebserver.com
And "MX" record for gowebserver.com pointing to mailhost1.gowebserver.com with
priority 10
Thank you all for your help!
