Hi List,
I am having a client. At first his domain was in a server,
in which, send mail was running.
if we put the command, host -t mx client.com <http://client.com>,
it will show,
client.com <http://client.com> mail is handled by 10 sendmail.one.com
<http://sendmail.one.com>
client.com <http://client.com> mail is handled by 20 sendmail.two.com
<http://sendmail.two.com>
Then we moved the domain client.com <http://client.com> to qmail
server which is having qmail-toaster
now if we put host -t mx client.com <http://client.com>,
it will show
client.com <http://client.com> mail is handled by 10 qmail.one.com
<http://qmail.one.com>
client.com <http://client.com> mail is handled by 20 sendmail.two.com
<http://sendmail.two.com>
Now the problem is, one mail from the [EMAIL PROTECTED]
<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> get bounced. It is bounced from the server
sendmail.two.com(Secondary MX) telling that
<<< 553 5.3.0 <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>>... nouser
No such user
550 5.1.1 <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>>... User unknown
Now i removed the secondary mx record. But this is not a solution. My
doubt is, Why a local mail is bounced from secondary server?
The user used outlook, so he may use old settings. Because the domain
is not completely deleted in the old server. But He is telling that
few mails to user2 only bouncing. Please Please clarify.....
The user cannot send emails through the secondary server unless the
accounts exist there. He will only be able to send emails through the
server that actually has his account.
If you want the secondary server to be a caching mail server for
incoming mail you just have to add the domain to the rcpthosts file -
look at the wiki, there's instructions on how to do this.
For both the primary and secondary servers to allow email to be sent
through them you'd need to set up a cluster type environment and I'd
suggest you hire one of the consultants listed in the wiki:
