The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

DNS MX records (need seperate sub domain MX record to route mail differently)

Asked by jasonsbytes in Fedora Linux, Qmail Email Server, Domain Name Service (DNS)

Tags: , , ,

I'm having trouble configuring my DNS MX records...

I'm using google aps for the primary mail and have all of their MX records added per their specification and that works fine.

However, I have mailman mailing lists on my server under this same domain, and I need mail sent to the lists to still go to the server and get processed by mailman.

What I did was create an additional A record for mx.domain.com that points to the server IP.
Then I created a new MX record for mx.domain.com that points to domain.com.

The other google MX records are all for domain.com and point to the google mail servers.

So, when I send mail to whatever@mx.domain.com I'm getting this error:
   ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors -----
<whatever@mx.domain.com>
    (reason: 553 sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts; no valid cert for gatewaying (#5.7.1))

   ----- Transcript of session follows -----
... while talking to domain.com.:
>>> DATA
<<< 553 sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts; no valid cert for gatewaying (#5.7.1)
550 5.1.1 <whatever@mx.domain.com>... User unknown
<<< 503 RCPT first (#5.5.1)

Am I going about this the right way or is there another way...  I need some way to differentiate my list mail from normal mail and I was thinking an additional mx record that uses a subdomain that doesn't go to google would work... Maybe I was wrong... ???

I'm running on a FC 9 server with qmail and managing DNS via Plesk.Start Free Trial
