:::: ::::: Hello,
:::::
::::: I have a problem with DNS server on Windows 2000 Server.
:::::
::::: I don't receive e-mails on the correct server.
::::: Example with "very-long-domain.com":
::::: ; Zone Records
::::: @ A 66.192.XXX.XXX
::::: @ MX 10 mail.very-long-domain.com.
::::: ftp CNAME very-long-domain.com.
::::: mail A 212.182.XXX.XXX
::::: www CNAME very-long-domain.com.
:::::
::::: E-mails are received by 66.192.XXX.XXX whereas they should be
::::: received by 212.182.XXX.XXX. Do you know how is it possible?? I
::::: specify that when I go to
http://mail.very-long-domain.com, I got
::::: an answer from the right server (I mean the Web is OK, my problem
::::: is just with the e-mail).
:::::
::::: Thanks in advance for your help !

::
:: Can you try the nslookup from a machine outside of your network?
::
:: You can also check your domain records at:
:: dnsstuff.com
:: dnsreport.com
::
:: Unless since you are internal, and you have a split-horizon zone and
:: you manually created the record with the 66. address.
:
: OK, I give you the exact domain name :
: harvestbirdhouse.com
:
: You can try to send an e-mail to (e-mail address removed), you'll
: see that is not the correct server who answers...
: Thanks again
:
: Jeremy (and sorry for the bad english)
Getting MX record for harvestbirdhouse.com... Got it!
Host Preference IP(s) [Country]
mail.harvestbirdhouse.com. 10 213.186.46.49 [FR]
This is where the public record says to send mail.
Take a look at this:
