Your problem is that MX records cannot point to CNAMEs and Davide has adhered to the RFC. You have a number of options before you. 1. fix the dns so MX do not point to CNAME 2. use SMARTDNSHOST 127.0.0.1, as long as your server's named recovers from the incorrect MX/CNAME thingy. 3. pester Davide to add 'smart' code to xmail's dns resolver to cater for people that don't follow the RFCs (don't like your chances!).
