Re: How badly have I screwed up?From: Men & Mice Support Date: Friday, January 4, 2002
Time: 7:27:58 pmNo, actually, what you're seeing is two MX records *in* your zone,
not *for* your zone.
An MX record for a zone name has the same name as a zone. Note that,
given your description (in another message) of how your mail service
is set up, a revised recommendation would be:
officemedic.net. MX 10 mx1.officemedic.net.
mx1.officemedic.net. MX 10 mx1.officemedic.net.
lists.officemedic.net. MX 10 mx1.officemedic.net.
mx1.officemedic.net. A <IP address of mail server>
Since these MX records all have different names, they affect the
routing of different messages. Therefore, they do not conflict.
