External mail server with gmail MX service

Hi.
I'm tryng to use external mail service offered by Gmail setting how MX the 5 mail server of Gmail.

i have a problem making this....

I have setting on my domain the option "external mail server" on the host www.mysite.com and host mysite.com

When setting up the host "mail.mysite.com" in dns manager i have added IP address of my machine, and have hadded 5 mail server of Gmail in the MX section of DNS manager.

Quering host mail.mysite.com:

Getting MX record for mail.mysite.com (from local DNS server, may be cached)... Got it!

Host Preference IP(s) [Country]
alt1.aspmx.l.google.com. 10 72.14.205.27 [US]
alt2.aspmx.l.google.com. 20 64.233.167.114 [US]64.233.167.27 [US]

This test see correctly the MX address of Gmail server....

But.......
when send an email to test@mysite.com form email address hosted on the same server, it return this error postfix message:

The Postfix program

<test@mysite.com>: mail for mysite.com loops back to
myself

Postfix tryng to send this mail at host mail.mysite.com with my ip...
But host mail.mysite.com have different external Gmail mail server.

I can not add to host mail.mysite.com an IP...because Gmail mail server not offer a static ip to associate to my host mail.mysite.com

He is obvious that host mail.mysite.com try to send mail at ip address associated to host mail.mysite.com

How can solve this Issue!?!?!
I can not use Gmail external mail service?!

My dns is autoritative for this domain and have waith for 48 hour..........

 

What is the output of:

hostname -f

 

output is:
server3.myserver.org (my server...not my site)

 

Hi.
I have added mail server ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
to /etc/postfix/local-host-names and restart postfix..

I will receive mail in next the 48 hours ??!!

Thanks.

after adding the gmail mail server to local host name i have the same error:
The Postfix program

<test@mysite.com>: mail for mysite.com loops back to
myself

 

Please post an excerpt of your mail.log

 

Add mysite.com to the end of /etc/postfix/local-host-names and restart Postifx.

The Postfix program

<admin@mysite.com>: mail for mysite.com loops back to
myself
_______________________________________

all dns and A host is correctly configured...:

A Record
IP-Adresse Nome Host
100.100.100.100 www

My MX is setting up to :

Mailserver Host
ASPMX5.GOOGLEMAIL.COM mail
ASPMX4.GOOGLEMAIL.COM mail
ASPMX3.GOOGLEMAIL.COM mail
ASPMX2.GOOGLEMAIL.COM mail
ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM mail
ALT2.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM mail
ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM mail



domain www.mysite.com is setting to "external mail server"

Someone has some possible idea ?

 

Please check your postfix main.cf and /etc/hostname file if they contain mysite.com

 

if add mysite to my local host name...server reject request because admin@mysite.com not is in local recipietn...obvious....

my main.cf is:

error persist..........

 

new error in mail.log:

i have see this post....
http://howtoforge.org/forums/showthread.php?t=1163
but have to make all this procedure to make my mail server external?!

 

adding....mysite.com to local host names...have:

Sep 12 06:52:52 server3 postfix/smtpd[28269]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from host188-12-static.29-87-b.business.telecomitalia.it[87.29.12.188]: 550 <admin@mysite.com>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table; from=<giuseppe@myste2.eu> to=<admin@mysite.com> proto=ESMTP helo=<[127.0.0.1]>

in my.cf of postfix have tryed to add:

mydestination = server3.myserver.org, localhost, mysite.com, mail.mysite.com, ASPMX2.GOOGLEMAIL.COM

whit any result....

 

I think what you want is an MX record for mysite.com instead of mail.mysite.com. Have a look at these two tutorials, and a lot of things should be clearer: http://www.howtoforge.com/ispconfig_dns_godaddy
http://www.howtoforge.com/traditional_dns_howto

 

hi.
i have solved. all my dns setting is ok.
the problem was in MX listed server...
that server..will be write whitout the host "mail"....
