I've setup a new web server hostname doremi.ctgameinfo.com. When I try to send mail to username@ctgameinfo.com it tries to deliver it locally instead of to the mx server mx1.ctgameinfo.com. In previous versions this seems to work correctly. Why would it be trying to deliver locally this time? I'm running default sendmail config that comes with the standard install. Another server I have seems to have this problem even worse. It's a web server, and for any of the hundreds of domains hosted on it (www A records pointed at it, but MX records pointed elseware) it also tries to deliver locally. I was able to get this mostly working by using a smarthost to the actual mail server, but I don't understand why it would be ignoring the mx records. I've never had problems like these with previous versions. What has changed?
