I have been using Lunarpages for 2 years without issue, but recently I need to move my website to "other host". I wanted to keep my email hosted through lunarpages. I have my domain hosted on Yahoo where I bought it. The problems started when I changed my domain registration to use "other host" and now email coming in doesn't ever make it to my accounts. I can send email out, but not receive. Here is my registration entries. I've never had a custom MX record before which really puzzles me as to why it worked before. I thought I'd need a customer MX record pointing at the lunarpages mail servers, but I haven't in the past. I've searched the wiki and such without any help as to what those mail servers might be.
A Record: mydomain.com -> Yahoo IP Address
CNAME Record: *.mydomain.com -> Yahoo Hostname
CNAME Record: mail.mydomain.com -> Yahoo Hostname
CNAME Record:
www.mydomain.com ->
www.otherhost.comMX Record:
Yahoo Mail Server
Yahoo Mail Server
DNS Servers:
primary: ns1.lunarservers.com
secondary: ns2.lunarservers.com
Previously I had *.mydomain.com pointing at something in lunarpages, but I can't remember what. However, if I left that in there the route to www didn't take. Once I removed *.mydomain.com pointing at lunarpages then www started working. Really I want to route * to "other host", except for mail which should to lunarpages.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Charlie
