    Default exim (unrouteable mail domain)

    my server has been working fine,i just updated lately to :
    WHM 9.4.0 cPanel 9.4.1-S65
    RedHat Enterprise 3 - WHM X v3.1.0

    two days later,a user with xxx.yyy.com at my server reported that whenever he sends an email to yy@china-inse.com he get this error:

    This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

    A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
    recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

    yy@china-inse.com
    unrouteable mail domain "china-inse.com"

    when i dig for the MX records for this domain from my server,it resolves.

    when i check from the ssh using : /usr/sbin/exim -bt -d inse@china-inse.com
    i get the following :

    everything is working fine with me.except this domain.
    exim log files gives me no clues at all.

    All the exim output you quoted shows is that mail delivery is handled by MailScanner, so is not at all helpful. However, this:
    This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

    A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
    recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

    yy@china-inse.com
    unrouteable mail domain "china-inse.com"
    is not coming from your server, but from the one at the end of china-inse.com, and indicates a problem on that server, not yours. The message would indicate that the remote server has not been setup to relay email for that domain.

    ok,the strange thing is that i can send from the web without problems,and no mails are returned.
    however,when i send using the outlook it returns with the email msg above.

    and please notice,sending by outlook is the one with the problem,not with webmail!

    so any ideas please !
