I'm having a problem with the MX error:

"|MX records for $domain violate section 3.3.9 of RFC 1035"

Problem being that I have already changed the MX record (check belminfernandez.com) but it seems to be cached.

1) This shouldn't matter because I changed 'esmtpdroutes' file to have:

belminfernandez.com: [192.168.3.1]

AND I tried:

belminfernandez.com: mail.belminfernandez.com

Any suggestions for how to work around this problem? How do I clear the cache so it could get the updated MX route OR how do I fix it so 'esmtproutes' works. That is the correct file name right? I attempted testmxlookup these are the results despite the MX record change and the 'esmtpdroutes' entry:

[root@belminfernandez bin]# ./testmxlookup belminfernandez.com Domain belminfernandez.com: Relay: ::ffff:66.65.49.241, Priority: 20, Address: ::ffff:66.65.49.241 [ ERROR ]

2) Again, it shouldn't matter because this is the host in the 'me' file and this is a local address. Isn't that the way it should be configured for local address (the one the server runs of)? I attempted different combos of 'hosteddomains' entry and 'locals' and still received the same error. Any suggestions here?

3) Last but not least, the weirdest part about this is that the mail attempted to be sent through the SMTP server that is getting this error isn't even addressed to an email at @belminfernandez.com. The From/ReplyTo address is an @belminfernandez.com. Is this some sort of check I could disable. I tried disabling some BOFH* values in the 'esmtpd' file. How should I have these settings set?

Thanks for any help you guys can offer!

PS: Just in case, of course I tried restarting after every (even ones that didn't call for) change in files/settings :-/
