Hello,
As the title suggests, I need help configuring Records for my mail server.
My situation is as follows:
My domain, “mydomain.com”, is registered with Namecheap. I host my web and mail server at Strato and use Plesk Obsidian to manage my server.
Specifically, I need help setting up MX, A to ensure my email and web services are working properly. I have created a subdomain “mailbox.mydomain.com” with a SSL certificate for secure sending and receiving emails. My records currently look like this:
Hostname: mailbox.mydomain.com
IP: 123.456.78
Domain: mydomain.com
Type | Host | Value | TTL
A Record | * | 123.456.78 | Automatic
A Record | @ | 123.456.78 | Automatic
A Record | mailbox | 123.456.78 | Automatic
MX Record | @ | mailbox.mydomain.com. |10| Automatic
MX Record | mydomain.com | mailbox.mydomain.com. | 10 | Automatic
I get smtp warnings “Reverse DNS is not a valid hostname” when using the “MXToolBox checker”.
I stored the reverse DNS with Strato so that it points to my domain. Since the server is at Strato, I cannot make a separate “PTR” entry on Namecheap.
Could you please help me set the required DNS records to successfully configure my mail and web server?
I thank you in advance for your help!
