re: DNS Setting - MX & Website on 1and1.co.uk

The website is being hosted on 1and1's servers.

The exchange mail server is located in my office. It's hosted on an ADSL connection with fixed IP. The mailserver itself does not have it's own domain name.

Email has been received, and sent using 4 different domains, each registered with the same host, 2 being.co.uk 2 being .com. That suggests the server is configured correctly and this the DNS / MX records being the issue.

For the mydomain.com accounts which I haven't started to migrate to the new host yet the records are:

dig any mydomain.com
;mydomaini.com. IN ANY

;; ANSWER SECTION:
mydomain.com.com. 16899 IN A 195.xx.xx.xx (webhost server IP)
