Hi,
Was going to attempt to set up a local mail server running freebsd 6.0 stable.
So far haven't set up the mail server yet, but was doing a little googling and
reading the handbook, and ran the command host -t mx <domain.tld>
NOTE: inserted my domain in <domain.tld>
When running the command:
host -t mx <domain.tld>
It returns:
domaint.tld.domain.tld
This certainly don't look appropiate.
A little background info:
The domain I own is through godaddy.com and have the dns servers pointing to
zoneedit.com to point to my static ip and domain.tld. My ISP is Bellsouth,
and won't run a reverse DNS for my domain name so I use ZoneEdit.com to point
to my home address <static IP>.
Shouldn't the comand "host -t mx domain.tld" just return "domain.tld"??
If this isn't correct how can i correct?
Thanks,
JP
