    Default Email DNS Problem

    I cannot send or recieve email and I belive it is a dns problem. Everything worked and I changed the nameserver. Not sure how to get the settings correct. I edited the settings in whm but it appears to need to be changed in 3 places, the other two places when I changed the settings i got errors, 1st error puts the dns on one of the other ip addresses not my shared address, and the other sayerror says i need to delete the the records and redo them, but i don't want to delete anything for the fear of losing data....How should this be done????

    Unless you provide more info about the error messages and when do you get them, otherwise it is very hard to say without looking into your DNS and see what's goin'on there.

    May try to troubleshoot a little yourself using www.dnsstuff.com but as posted above with no info hard to help...lots of stuff that may be wrong.
