all relevant MX records point to non-existent hosts
$ host -t mx f8.pl
f8.pl mail is handled by 10 f8.pl.f8.pl.

host -t a f8.pl.f8.pl
Host f8.pl.f8.pl not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)

Something is broken in your DNS. Fix that and you should be set.

It looks like you're missing a "." in your host file. The entry should
have a "." at the end of it instead of nothing. Basically, your entry
should look like "f8.pl." and you have "f8.pl" instead.

that something is "you forgot the dot at the end of the domain name".
It should look like

MX 10 f8.pl.

Hi all

I'm sending mail to host from 4 different locatoins

-1 location (via internet - mail account on internet service provider
host) -> it goes fine = no probem

-2 location (from other private server with instaled mail server - exim)
-> no problem

-3 location (my local server without DNS) -> I recive :

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es)
failed:

***@f8.pl
all relevant MX records point to non-existent hosts

Server uses exim 4.41 with kavd (kaspersky antyvirus) standard instalation
v5.0 (LMTP + SMTP)
Host configuration setings in MAIN CONFIGURATION looks that:
##########
primary_hostname = f8.pl
domainlist local_domains = f8.pl
domainlist relay_to_domains =
hostlist relay_from_hosts = 127.0.0.1 : 192.168.168.0/27
##########
192.168.168.0/27 -> local network


I don't know is that server problem, local o remote DNS problem or something
else ??
Anyone knows ??

Thanks Jarek G
