#3951 MX Record request
Closed: Fixed None Opened 10 years ago by orcakrilozona.

I'm running mm.fedoracommunity.org and I just need mail service for internal web site and forum.
In addition, I'm also needing email service for website admin and some co-contributors of Fedora for easier communication with the public.

= implementation recommendation =
Adding the IP 184.154.130.35 as MX record to the domain mm.fedoracommunity.org , please.


A MX record should only be needed if mail for that domain is going to a different host that it's A record.

Since thats the same as the host, it shouldn't be needed. Any MTA in the universe will look for a MX, not find it and then try sending to the A record. ;)

Please reopen if I misunderstood your request or if the MX does need to be sending mail to a different host.

I think it should work fine without it. ;)

I'm sorry to reopen this.
In my second thought, I'd decided to put the email system on another dedicated VPS.

Can you please point MX record of mm.fedoracommunity.org to the IP 108.163.221.54 ?

Thanks in advance. :)

Done. Should be active in the next hour or so.
