• Mail relay prob

    From Ennev@1:103/705 to DOVE-Net.Synchronet_Sysops on Wed Aug 19 14:12:19 2020
    I think I've set everything right but yet, no mail get to me.

    I've check on https://mxtoolbox.com and I don't see an mx record for mtlgeek.synchro.net. But yet when my bbs do a dyndns call in the log it
    look fine ( replaced the actual password with XXXXXX in this post )

    Full debug log :

    My service on 587 seem to work fine too. Sending an email to the service
    with thunderbird from a vpn ensuring I was connecting from the outside
    world:

    The setting used :

    Port: 587
    Username : XXXXX

    And the message for delivered to that user mailbox without prob.

    So what’s wrong ? What did I missed ?

    Need more time for the DNS to propagate o.k ?

    I think I've set everything right but yet, no mail get to me.

    I've check on https://mxtoolbox.com and I don't see an mx record for mtlgeek.synchro.net. But yet when my bbs do a dyndns call in the log it
    look fine ( replaced the actual password with XXXXXX in this post )

    Fixed:
    $ host -t mx mtlgeek.synchro.net
    mtlgeek.synchro.net mail is handled by 0 mail.synchro.net.

    TLCBBS still can't seem to get his LOC record right:

    o.k. i've just check the doc and I see we now have modopts.ini to play
    with for dyndns

    so if I where to write in it


    [dyndns]
    mx = mail.synchro.net
    loc = 45 30 13.857 N 73 35 34.125 W

    that would work

    just got aware of the loc record :-D

    Another sysop can mangle my synchro.net zone file. That's what happened.
