As Simon and others have pointed out, you really need to provide more
information.
What do you mean when you say you've tried mx, smtp, etc?
What is the client's mail server? Is DNS set up correctly?
How have you tried to resolve the MX pointers?
This really sounds a lot like this client has a mis-configured server.
A description of how email works is probably not approprite for the list. If
you wish to know how MTA's, etc exchange massages, you can email me off list
and I'll give you some starting points.
Mail transport is quite a big subject... :-)
BTW, if anyone from XTRA is reading this... just a wee nitpick. There's no
reverse set up for fisherfunds.co.nz

Hi All,
Have always been reading but never posted. Have this problem here with resolving the mail record for fisherfunds.co.nz . Tkns for any assistance in
advance.
I have this mail server at clients connecting via Xtra ADSL network using their default DNS servers (202.27.184.3 / 202.27.184.5) to resolve a mail record. Have tried mail / smtp / mx @fisherfunds.co.nz without any luck.
I know that fisherfunds.co.nz is hosted on Xtra and uses Xtras mail servers.
As I can successfully send mail to fisherfunds.co.nz from Orcon internet.
So to sum it up my mail server and the target domain is both on Xtras network, but my mail server cant resolve their Mail record to deliver mail. How does other people E.g Orcon get the mail delivered? What is not working?
Thanks Felix
