However I made the mx record in my server

The MX records are pointing to 1and1.com servers instead of your own server. You must create the MX record on the authoritative nameservers for your domain. You can find them out by running

dig ns yourdomain.com

Can I change all those records from 1and1.com to my server?
Is this something that will happing all the time whent I register a new domain?

Thank you

[falko]

You must create the MX record on ns57.1and1.com and ns58.1and1.com.

If you want to run your own nameservers, take a look here (it's for ISPConfig 2, but it should give you the idea): http://www.howtoforge.com/ispconfig_dns_godaddy

[Before we create DNS records for ifwolfpack.com on our ISPConfig servers, go to Management -> Server -> Settings -> DNS and enter ns1.erikturk.com as Default Ns1 and ns2.erikturk.com as Default Ns2. You should also specify a valid Admin Email:]

How can we translate this in ISPConfig3??? It could be System >> server >> add new server ????

My hostname is "server" so server.example.com
do I have to change the setting to ns1.example.com or just add a new server?
thanks.

There are no corresponding settings in ispconfig 3.

In ISPConfig 3 you go just to the dns module, click on the dns wizard and enter the details of the dns record and click save.
