Unable to send email to our club members alias

5 years 7 months ago

I recently became unable to send email to club aliases. Has MailChannels.net been blocked? Part of bounce message copied below.

Thanks,

Thanks for your quick response. What about relay.mailchannels.net? Any other ideas why I am unable to send email to the members alias? (I checked with another member, and he was able to send to the alias successfully.)

That does not post as a valid email domain for your email address.
It is not listed as one of your valid MX records.

we are not blocking
relay.mailchannels.net. 300 IN A 216.19.178.99

You need to post the entire email header if you want me to look further.
Thank you,

Also, my understanding is that the MX records for kromann.net are / should be:

mx1.mailchannels.net
mx2.mailchannels.net

And an SPF TXT record:

v=spf1 mx include:netblocks.dreamhost.com include:relay.mailchannels.net -all

I'm not an expert in mail routing, but my understanding is that this should indicate relay.mailchannels.net as a valid server for kromann.net email.

I have successfully sent email to FTH aliases over the past 6 months. Now something suddenly changed within the past week so that I can no longer send mail using this address. Any idea why my email is being rejected?
