Re: Problem with Mail ( MX )

Two things:

1. You shouldn't have both an HINFO record and a CNAME record with
the same name. CNAME records aren't permitted to have the same names
as other records.

2. Your web server most likely isn't looking at your MX record. Most
likely, it's looking at A records. There are too many variables to
say where the problem is likely to be. Would it be possible for you
to move each of the three (or four) services to different machines?
Or at the least, could you put IPNetRouter on a separate machine?
