DNS report

[James]

I have checked my domain at DNS report, and everything seems ok apart from
one item in the mail section:
"Acceptance of domain literals - WARN: One or more of your mailservers does
not accept mail in the domain literal format (user@[0.0.0.0])."

How can I fix this?

Cheers
James

Add your IP address to the recipient policy.

Add your IP address to the recipient policy.

So this is a mail server issue and not a DNS issue? Also am I right in
thinking your answer is for exchange server ? What the fix be for the MS
SMTP service.

In the Internet Services Manager Expand the SMTP virtual server, right click
on Domains, select new domain, select alias, next, type in the IP address,
click finish.

Thanks. However, although this does work, www.dnsreport.com still reports
that it doesn't.

Any ideas?

Are you getting an 'unable to relay' for your IP address?
I wouldn't worry about it...
