then I must say: it should check for an MX record. But it doesn't. I can see all DNS requests. Xmail doesn't request any MX record, only A records. If it gets a negative answer, it just rejects the attempt to send a mail without requesting the MX record at the DNS server. Maybe there's an explanation which I can't imagine so far ... I had to call the hoster and have a A record installed in order to reenable CheckMailerDomain. I will dig further by creating another domain with only an MX record. Hope to get more info.
