Can't recieve mail from "yahoo.com"
Hello all:

Firstly this is not a failure from GMail but maybe somebody here have had the same problem and could help me.

I have sent mail sfrom many other sites and have recieved them on my mailserver/GMailserver without problem. But when I attempt to send mail from "yahoo.com", I get the following failure message:

"Message from yahoo.com.
Unable to deliver message to the following address(es).

<pyc@mybestonline.com>:
Sorry, I couldn't find any host by that name. (#4.1.2)
I'm not going to try again; this message has been in the queue too
long."

Can anybody give some idea about a solution. I looked at the GMailForum and the internet but got nowhere. On the internet, these failures where mainly associated with qmail. My Gmailserver is using sendmail-8.12.8.

Thanks for your attention, pcurran

Hi,

I can't even ping mybestonline.com from console. It says unknown host. if it is newly setup domain, wait for zone records to propagate. If not then possibly have to check yr dns record for the domain.

I did a few DNS queries on your domain, and it seems that one of your DNS servers is not working properly. ns1.mybestonline.com is working fine, but ns2.mybestonline.com is not answering for your domain - so 50% of lookups are going to ns2.mybestonline.com, and then getting an error. You need to talk to your ISP about the nameserver configuration, and get them to fix it.

I'm able to ping it now, and both nameservers look okay. Try your Yahoo mail test again; it should work now.

Hi,

Sent u a mail (not from yahoo) and it is delivered. Sent 2 mails from Yahoo account and the same must have been delivered as it did not bounce back. Confirm if the same has been recd.

Thnx
