i have to leave for the night, I will be back in the morning.
Ditto
I think I need an RDNS entry with my ISP for mail.mydomain.com to point to my mail.mydomain.org IP address, right?
You're referring to a PTR record and yes your ISP would edit that. Do you have an external email server you can send from so you can run message tracking inbound? I'd be happy to if you want to PM me
My exchange server is inhouse, internal, not external. :(
I think I just configured my firewall correctly, I'm just trying to think what else I might need to do?
I got it resolved. I also added the mail,mydomain.com to my firewall to accept those emails.
I also created a new network on my firewall with a new IP address, and pointed the external DNS to it.
Then I called my ISP, and had them create the reverse DNS pointer, not sure if that helped or not.
I did my last test and it's working now. Thanks for your help.
Glad I could help. Take care :)
Have you updated the MX record in external DNS for domain.com?
