Here is the log file saying its an invalid user. Once it gets this it should
bounce it to the secondary mx record to hold onto it.

In the MX algorithm, lower preference MX's are never contacted after higher preference MX gives an SMTP response like "550 invalid user".


The MX algorithm does not say "hey, any of you other MX's for domain.com want to that this msg that of you has rejected"

02:22 06:25 SMTPD(172500AE) [64.135.81.11] MAIL
FROM:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
02:22 06:25 SMTPD(172500AE) [64.135.81.11] RCPT TO:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
02:22 06:25 SMTPD(172500AE) [64.135.81.11] ERR mail.statustechnologies.com
invalid user <[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Basically it never gets there.

no, it's rejected by Imail and the SMTP client has to deal with the reject.


And by reading the logs, you have discovered that removing scubaont from Imail has Imail acting correctly.

I have other domains that this is working with no problem (domains I have no set up anywhere else ever).

no, they are not working like scubaont. Something else is going on.


If you want scubaont mail to be handled by Imail

1) have Imail relay all mail for non-local-domain scubaont to an ip via mail relay routing in the Windows hosts file.

2) make scubaont an Imail local domain again with a nobody alias and then play with rules in the nobody mailbox.
