All of this was bad planning on my part... The server started out as server1.rivervalleywebdesign.com Then I changed it to server1.rivervalleywebhosting.com Almost all seems to be going well but getting email. I can send but when I try to receive email those clients that send them get a quick error email saying... ---Start email error The Postfix program <[email protected]> (expanded from <[email protected]>): Host or domain name not found. Name service error for name=server1.rivervalleywebdesign.com type=AAAA: Host not found --End email error And the logs show May 6 19:32:08 server1 postfix/cleanup[10823]: 00728B281B0: message-id=<[email protected]> May 6 19:32:08 server1 postfix/qmgr[10346]: 00728B281B0: from=<[email protected]>, size=1889, nrcpt=1 (queue active) May 6 19:32:08 server1 postfix/smtpd[10819]: disconnect from h7252.serverkompetenz.net[81.169.182.36] May 6 19:32:08 server1 postfix/smtp[10824]: 00728B281B0: to=<[email protected]>, orig_to=<[email protected]>, relay=none, delay=1, status=bounced (Host or domain name not found.

I followed the following posts.... Please change the hostname in /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/lib/config.inc.php as well. Also check if your old hostname is in /root/ispconfig/httpd/conf/httpd.conf. Change the hostname in /etc/hosts, /etc/hostname and /etc/postfix/main.cf. Restart your system afterwards. See also the command hostname when setting up the server in bash history Please change the domain in ISPCOnfig under management > server > settings too. Change it in /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/lib/config.inc.php, and laos change the ServerName in /root/ispconfig/httpd/conf/httpd.conf a
If you have a file /etc/hostname, chenge the hostname there too. What is the output of the command: hostname -f
Here is the output.. hostname -f server1.rivervalleywebhosting.com Here is the hosts file 127.0.0.1 localhost 207.158.15.168 server1.rivervalleywebhosting.com server1 # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts ::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback fe00::0 ip6-localnet ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix ff02::1 ip6-allnodes ff02::2 ip6-allrouters ff02::3 ip6-allhosts root@server1:/var/www/web1# --------------END HOST FILE--------------------------- Thanks for the help so far.

Hi yurtboy1, Check the file /etc/postfix/local-host-names, and see if you and the domain rivervalleywebdesign.com in any line. Best Regards,

Fixed it kind of... well I knew from the start that not planning this out better would get me. So I added server1.rivervalleywebdesign.com to the server through ispconfig and now it will take mail for rivervalleywebhosting.com Will this bother me later on????? Thanks for all the help. Al
The only problem I can think of might be this one: http://www.howtoforge.com/faq/9_33_en.html But if you don't plan to use Catch-all accounts, then this should work.
so if rivervalleywebhosting.com has a catch all that could be bad? Ideally as in the past it does and then all of it anyways forwards to rivervalleywebdesign.com which will be moved to this server shortly. So maybe all of this does not matter? I just really want rivervalleywebhosting.com to work right since it is nice to be redoing alot of this for a long term server setup at a new host. Al
If you use rivervalleywebhosting.com for the hostname of your server and a web site, and that web site has a catchAll account, that could cause problems, yes.
