http://serverfault.com – I have domain and hosting at GoDaddy.com with domain earthline.info. But my email is located at CBN.net.id. I have setup the mx with this configuration: But for CNAME, i'm not sure what i must setup for the mail, imap, smtp and etc. I'm not sure because in my outlook, incoming and outgoing server i use mail.earthline.info. Did it will make sure the mail will go through CBN.net.id server? (HowTos)

Stories similar to CNAME Setup on Different Server

I have to setup a mail server because my hosting account don't allow me to send over 250 mail/hour.

I have a HP microserver at home and I want to use it to send the mails. I configured Virtualmin on it and i created the domain example.com in it (I have example.com registered with hosting on my hoster) but when I tried to send mail from outlook, my server send the emails, but gmail mark it as spam

Hi,

Hoping someone can help me configure this.

I have assigned a dedicated IP and setup a DNS for mail.domain.com to the dedicated IP address.

Now mail.domain.com is used to send email (SMTP). However, when I look at the headers of the received email, it is the domain and IP address of my primary reseller domain.

I want the IP address and domain to be sent from mail.domain.com in the headers.

I have the following scenario i must implement using Postfix (but don't know how to begin):

Say we have a domain aaa.com which is hosted somewhere (this is already functioning without any problems).

I am having an issue with one of my Postfix/Dovecot mail servers and I'm unsure how to fix the problem. I will try to explain it in detail, here it goes:

I have an Ubuntu server setup using Virtual hosting with Postfix, Dovecot and MySQL. We have one domain setup as a virtual domain, for this example I am going to use mail.example.com. Under that domain we have one email address.

I have configured postfix, courier on EC2 which is having Ubuntu 12. The necessary port's are opened SMTP, IMAP, POP3.

Installed and configured postfixadmin. Added domain and some mail boxes.

I am able to send mail from that admin panel to any email address.

But not able to log in to any email account using outlook. It gives can't established secured, unsecured connection error.

eMail Hosting Issue 40 weeks 4 days ago

Hello 2 you all,

I have a client wich has a hosting account to another provider and want's to host all the email to our servers.

In this case if i understant very well:

1. It has to modify the DNS records as that

Current: domain.com. > IN > MX > domain.com. To: domain.com. > IN > MX > mail.domain.com.

and also

Current: mail > IN > CNAME > domain.com.

I have a problem with receiving mails. I do not know if my server or the server of the sender is wrong configured.

I have a domain daniel-marschall.de which has following DNS RR:

daniel-marschall.de. 86400 IN CNAME viathinksoft.com.

The domain viathinksoft.com has the MX RR to "mail.viathinksoft.com":

viathinksoft.com.

I have a commercial website on an Ubuntu web server and my hosting company has a mail server for all its customers.

For security reasons, do you think I should rely on my hosting company's centralized mail server for my domain's email? Or should I just set up my own mail server on the same Cloud server?

Maybe I should use Google Apps' mail server for my own domain?

Thanks in advance
