An A record for mail pointing to x.x.x.x, a PTR for x.x.x.x pointing to mail, and change the MX to point to mail. > 2) I add a virtual host without IP and the DNS entries are: > domain3.com > IN MX 10 machinename.domain.com (It is the primary host) > When I configure this virtual host, What?s the official host name > for it? What are the entries in the DNS that I must add ? You should get used to the setup: - virtual host official host name = virtualhost.example.com - host alias = example.com - A for virtualhost.example.com = IP - MX for example.com = virtualhost.example.com - PTR for IP = official host name of primary virtual host (official host name of IMail installation), if IP-less virtual host, _OR_ PTR for IP = virtualhost.example.com, if IP-ful virtual host Also, search the archives. --Sandy ------------------------------------ Sanford Whiteman, Chief Technologist Broadleaf Systems, a division of Cypress Integrated Systems, Inc. e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] SpamAssassin plugs into Declude! http://www.mailmage.com/products/software/freeutils/SPAMC32/download/release / Defuse Dictionary Attacks: Turn Exchange or IMail mailboxes into IMail Aliases! http://www.mailmage.com/products/software/freeutils/exchange2aliases/downloa d/release/ http://www.mailmage.com/products/software/freeutils/ldap2aliases/download/re lease/ To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/ To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
