    Mail not sending or Delivering from Gmail on My VPS

    I've this problem for a while and I've used so many solutions I found using the search function on the forum without success.

    When I try sending mail from gmail I get the following bounced back:
    Code:

    Exclamation KnownHost VPS not sending or receiving email from Gmail

    It is a cpanel VPS and I think the mail worked all right when I first got it. Don't know what has changed since then.
    Has any one else ever had this same kind of issue with Gmail?

    What's your mail servers ip and fqdn?
    I wish all my traffic went through AS174.

    Please where do I find those? I'm rather new to the VPS thing. Thanks.

    Your ip is your IP address. Your fqdn is your fully qualified domain name. If you are unable to answer these, you should hire someone to manage your system for you as it is likely full of security issues.

    Login to your cpanel for the domain you want to use gmail. click on mx records set "Remote Mail Exchanger" Use this table:
    http://www.google.com/support/a/bin/...?answer=174125

    click "Advanced DNS Zone Editor"

    add:

    spf record txt "v=spf1 ip4:your ip here include:_spf.google.com ~all"

    Done.

    make sure you have RDNS on your ip address or google will reject you every time.

    Exactly. You must contact your data center to get this done. It only takes a few minutes.

    Actually, I have never had that experience. I send email to my gmail accounts and it works fine without RDNS.

    If the OP is trying to send mail addressed "From" a @gmail.com (or a google apps domain) account, it won't work unless he authenticates with SASL.

    After reading your error messages it looks like google is trying to deliver a message to your server but the email address doesnt exist on your server. and when you send it from your server it trys to deliver it local and can't find the email address.

    @ricoenoro,

    Do you own www.mydomain.com? If you don't own it you shouldn't use that domain name to send / receive email.

    Going out on a limb here and saying he edited out his details and replaced it with that as a generic.

    Thanks a Lot Dawg, I actually put an spf record earlier in which didn't work, I've put in this and would test again soon though for the mx records I got the following after adding them. Thanks a million all the same
    "Added MX Record
    1 → ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
    Auto Detect of MX configuration not possible due to non-resolving MX entries. Defaulting to last known setting: .
    The following entries could not be resolved: ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM"

    @SolidJoe Thanks for the assistance, I got confused by the fqdn abbreviation and was mobile when I replied so couldn't google it either. For the IP address, I felt you meant the mail server had a different/separate IP Address.. It is a managed VPS already though.


    @hsphereclub, I would do that at once.... Wish the Forum had a Thanks Button

    @SolidJoe Yes I edited every personal detail, don't feel its safe putting up everything on a Public forum.


    @All Thanks for the Suggestions, I would test them now and if no solution I would contact KnownHost again to look into it.
    Sorry for bothering if I did, just felt since I've used VPS servers for just above 6 months and you guys have done so for many years I could get some assistance here. We all started somewhere afterall.
