    whenever i try to create Mx for mybanglaspace.com from ispconfig control panel it automaticaly add www with that . however i left hostname empty . though my mail server isnt appearing in dnsreport.com's report . then i have inserted MX record manualy which is --

    IN MX 10 mail.mybanglaspace.com.
    webmail IN CNAME mail
    mail IN A 64.251.15.70

    then i saw - in dnsreport.com its showing alright . and finaly my email arrived in gmail junk folder . but no sign in yahoo and hotmail . however i have asked my provider they provide me their smtp relay address which is mailout.infolink.com . now when i have sent email it gone to gmail inbox. good . solved i went to for rest after so many sleepless days and night . comeback in the next morning found . my users invitation mails and news letter all of them in mailquee ( postfix ) with this erorr message " delivery temporarily suspended: unknown mail transport error " 220 mail in qeuee . i thought it could be problem of my smtp relay they are not accepting mass mailing or mail via httpd ( [email protected] ) . however i i have removed smtp relay . and tried to send few invitations mail and mail from mysitefrom . now same thing same message" delivery temporarily suspended: unknown mail transport error " please help . i have tried stop postfix and using send mail but unable to start sendmail due to some reason send mail isnt working .

    Instead of creating the record manually, you could have used ISPConfig's DNS Manager for this.

    Can you post the exact error message from /var/log/maillog?

    Why did you replace Postfix with Sendmail? Sendmail is a lot harder to manage than Postfix...

    You can try to set the virtusertable path to /etc/mail/virtusertable and the local-host-names path to /etc/mail/local-host-names in ISPConfig (Management > Server > Settings > Email).
    Change something afterwards in ISPConfig so that the new files get written.
