Help with MX Entries - MailEnable

[iampedro]

I am using the Free DNS provided by server beach but when I try to telenet into these mx entries I can't seem to get threw. I am using MailEnable on my server and I don't understand why I can't recieve e-mail on this server but I can send it. Please help me if you have setup mailenable as a e-mail server on your server.

MailEnable came pretty much Already setup on my server. What issues are you having? What Control Panel are you using?

If you have entered the MX record using the DNS tool, the only other thing you should have to do is add the domain to Mail Enable using the MMC for MailEnable.

I am not using a control pannel I am using Windows 2003 Standard.

Ok so in the MailEnable admin have you added the post office for the domain you are trying to receive mail with?

[iampedro]

Yes... I see that it is recieving but when I try to recieve e-mail to that account I have setup on the post office I don't see it recive.. The SMTP shows up e-mail but it dosen't show it in the mail box though.

so the email you send to the mail account doesn't bounce but doesn't get put into the mail box either.

hmm I don't have the interface in front of me so I'll have to look later and see if I see something you might be missing unless someone else here might know.

Okay when ever you do please help me out and send me screen shots and you can fuzzy out things that you don't want me to see or you can pim me that kind of way and we can talk via e-mail.

Firstly, what do you mean by "telnetting into the MX entries?" Also, how have you determined that the mail is reaching the SMTP server?

The first place I'd look would be the SMTP activity logs to see what's going on when the server receives an email.
