Have you tried putting the information for that domain in your hosts file?
Imail will check the hosts file before DNS.

Subject: [IMail Forum] DNS resolution in Imail 8.22



I'm having an issue delivering emails to a certain domain. 

The A record for that Domain is 1.1.1.1 and the MX record is 2.2.2.2, but
IMail trys to connect to 1.1.1.1 for delivery. Now unfortunately there
happens to be a SMTP server on 1.1.1.1, but not the correct one. The DNS
server configured in IMail is 3.3.3.3. When I do a NSLookup from the IMail
server command prompt the DNS server(3.3.3.3) returns the correct records A
1.1.1.1, MX 2.2.2.2. 

One issue I see is the records for this domain for the MX record is not
properly configured. The Host Name is the IP Address instead of the Name.

Host Name 2.2.2.2 

IP Address 2.2.2.2

Would that cause IMail to try and connect to 1.1.1.1 instead? Don't see why.

I cleared the DNS Cache and Failed Domain Skipping in IMail hoping that
would correct the issue, but honestly there is no feedback to know if that
actually worked.

Where are those records kept exactly?

I beleive that 1.1.1.1 was at one point the correct MX record so the DNS
cache in Imail might be the issue.

Anyone see anything like this?

Thanks
