[QUOTE="MacsWork, post: 138737, member: 11094"] Are you suggesting sending mail to [email]user@mail1.domain.com[/email]? If an email address is [email]user@domain.com[/email] it is up to the other side to get it as that. Not for you to send it differently. Your smtp server doesn't do a lookup for right and wrong, asside from formatting the address. If you ping mail1.domain.com and domain.com you'll get the same IP if they are behind the same firewall. If the mail server is somewhere else the ISP/host will need the MX record to reflect where to direct mail traffic. [/QUOTE]
