Hi. This is the qmail-send program at middns1.co.uk.I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.This is a permanent error;I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

<[email protected]>:Sorry. Although I'm listed as a best-preference MX or A for that host,it isn't in my control/locals file, so I don't treat it as local. (#5.4.6)


can anyone shed some light on this.

Like I said on msn.
Contact Supanames quoting the error email and whate xactly your doing / is happening.

I expect they will pass it on to Andy to deal with.. he is the server admin.

If you've only just set it up, it might be a DNS propagation issue. You should allow up to 48 hours for things like this to work.

Seems to check out OK here (http://www.checkdns.net/quickcheck.aspx?domain=kmadisco.co.uk&detailed=1)...


Mail server middns1.co.uk [194.154.162.100] accepts mail for kmadisco.co.uk
