This may relate to my recent long question about loss of E-Mail.
Can anyone tell me *exactly* how an MX record for my home server zbmc.eu should be confiugured?
Currently it's configured to point to the 'root' A record for zbmc.eu, so the MX record is for zbmc.eu also:-
chris@cheddar$ host zbmc.eu zbmc.eu has address 84.92.49.234 zbmc.eu mail is handled by 10 zbmc.eu. chris@cheddar$
However I *think* this may be wrong and I should create a second A record for the same IP address and point the MX record to that instead. I don't really understand why this should make any diffrerence though.
Any experts (or at least people who know more than me) here?
