    I set up ispconfig as usual and got everything working except one thing.
    I can't recieve emails from any domain, i can send them just find, not block thanks to SPF:) ,but i cant recieve. When send emails from my gmail to my server for a test this is what i get in return(domain names changed for privacy).
    blahblahblah.info = server/ispconfig name
    server1 = ispconfig hostname
    123rg.com = intended mail target residing on server

    Original-Recipient: rfc822;[email protected]
    Action: failed
    Status: 5.4.4
    Diagnostic-Code: X-Postfix; Host or domain name not found. Name service error
    for name=server1.blahblahblah.info type=A: Host found but no data
    record of requested type

    Seems like a dns error, but all other dns services, any suggestions?

    Thanks

    Please make sure that the DNS record exists:
    Code:
    dig server1.blahblahblah.info
