    I recently re-configured my MX entries to run my mail through google mail, but it's not working :(

    http://private.dnsstuff.com/tools/traversal.ch?domain=staticanime.net&type=MX

    Here's my staticanime.net. zones file:
    Code:
    $ttl 3600
staticanime.net.	IN	SOA	ns363416.ovh.net. admin.staticanime.net. (
			1219052887
			10800
			3600
			604800
			38400 )

    Yeah, I didn't get a chance to reply earlier. Anyway, I fixed it, it was just my own stupidity (I typo'd)

    The Original zones file was wrong, it should have been this:
    Code:
    $ttl 3600
staticanime.net.	IN	SOA	ns363416.ovh.net. admin.staticanime.net. (
			1219052887
			10800
			3600
			604800
			38400 )
staticanime.net.	1H	IN	NS	ns363416.ovh.net.
staticanime.net.	IN	A	91.121.181.5
www.staticanime.net.	IN	A	91.121.181.5
ftp.staticanime.net.	IN	A	91.121.181.5

staticanime.net.	1H	IN	MX	1 ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM.
staticanime.net.	1H	IN	MX	5 ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM.
