To change MX records for your domain, go to Webmin. Then click on the Servers icon at the top of the page and navigate to the BIND DNS server. Click on your domain zone, remove all existing MX records and then add MX entries for Google servers listed on the page https://www.google.com/support/a/bin/answer.py?answer=33915Click apply the changes or restart BIND and all should be done. |

Hello,
You need to ensure that your mail server is not configured to accept email for your domain. This will enable it to send mail to the servers listed in the MX entries.
Please don't hesitate to ask if you have any further questions.

The mail server will be sending email through MX servers when your domain is not listed as the domain it accepts email for. Please check the mail server configuration and remove the domain name from it if it is in there.
Also it would be usefull to review the mail logs. They usually are stored in the file named /var/log/maillog. This will give you the exact idea what is happening with emails sent to your domain.

Hi again, Here is what is written in the mail logs when an email is sent from a script to test@mydomain.comThe email is forwarded to my gmail address (cf address mappings above) Sep 7 03:15:52 server sendmail[19865]: k87AFqYU019865: from=nobody, size=436, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<200609071015.k87AFqYU019865@server.mydomain.com>, relay=nobody@localhost

[64.233.185.114], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (OK 1157624297 11si974998wrl) Please check the mail server configuration and remove the domain name from it if it is in there. I use webmin control panel. "server.mydomain.com" is on a lot of different pages. Which module should i use?  The Name Server Records page ( http://www.mydomain.com:10000/bind8/edit_recs.cgi?index=10&view=&type=NS ) shows: Name TTL Name Server mydomain.com. Default ns1.mydomain.com. mydomain.com.

Hi,
You need to modify mail server configuration only. What appears in the mail logs when you don't have address mapping configured?
You can send me an exceprt from the logs in a private message if you want.
Best Regards,
Vlad

Plese answer the following questions to help me to identify the problem:
1. Is your domain listed in the /etc/mail/sendmail.mc?
2. Have you tried to configure sendmail on your server and do you have email accounts configured on the server besides the address aliases.
3. Are you able to send emails to any other domain from your scripts?
Thank you.

I asked whether you tried to configure your mail server to be sure that your sendmail runs the default configuration  . One more question: is your domain pointed to the nameservers on your server or is it using some other DNS servers? Thanks for your patience  |

Unfortunately, I fail to see why your server is unable to send email to your domain at gmail.com  . Your settings as you paste them here look correct and nothing should prevent your mail server from forwarding email for your domain. To continue the investigation we will need to know your domain name so that we can check the server ourselves. Please open a ticket by sending a email to the dedicated@lunarpages.com about this issue or send me the domain name in a private message and we will look into this situation further. Thanks. |
