Hi everyone,

Earlier today (about 12 hours ago) I switched the NS records for my domain jakowicz.com to point at my Linode, Bluehost was the previous host.

I have also configured the MX records to now point at my Linode and created the mail user. Strangely I am able to send and receive emails. Because it seems my old host still has come control of the domain it seems.

My /var/log/mail.log doesn't get updated when I send or receive emails on this address, also these are the headers when I receive emails from simon@jakowicz.com

Re: test


This is this is the output of an nslookup

Quote:
nslookup -query=MX mail.jakowicz.com

I get

Server: 109.74.192.20
Address: 109.74.192.20#53

Non-authoritative answer:
*** Can't find mail.jakowicz.com: No answer

Authoritative answers can be found from:
jakowicz.com
origin = ns1.linode.com
mail addr = simon.jakowicz.com
serial = 2014052876
refresh = 14400
retry = 14400
expire = 1209600
minimum = 86400


I'm a little rough on the edge of sysadmin and I honestly can't work out what is going wrong here. The DNS records look like they have propagated. Any help is very much appreciated.

Thank you
Simon

you're looking up the wrong thing with your MX query. You don't want to lookup mail.jakowicz.com, you want to look up jakowicz.com and see that it points to mail.jakowicz.com. I get this:

$ nslookup -query=MX jakowicz.com
Server: 207.192.69.4
Address: 207.192.69.4#53

Non-authoritative answer:
jakowicz.com mail exchanger = 10 mail.jakowicz.com.

Authoritative answers can be found from:
jakowicz.com nameserver = ns5.linode.com.
jakowicz.com nameserver = ns1.linode.com.
jakowicz.com nameserver = ns2.linode.com.
jakowicz.com nameserver = ns4.linode.com.
jakowicz.com nameserver = ns3.linode.com.
mail.jakowicz.com internet address = 178.79.150.38

So it looks fine to me. If emails are still going through the old one, that just means the DNS hasn't fully propagated yet. Honestly, some places ignore TTLs even if you do drop them before moving. It can still take a day or two for misconfigured stragglers to catch up. Most people should be fine now though.

Hey gig,

Thanks for the the tip with nslookup.

As you said it was a propagation issue. Just me being impatient I guess :P
