I am a reseller, with Hostgator as my provider, and I was the lucky one to find that they had a system wide problem with WHM and cPanel.

I am trying to help them resolve the issue, and see if I can't learn something in the process :)

I created a domain, aarongoddard.com in WHM. Here is the output that WHM gave me.

Notice the errors in the middle. I am not sure what goes on during this process, but here are the results.

I was previously with another provider that had cPanel. I moved to HostGator and had them transfer 20 domains. I moved the other 7 domains that I had. The 7 domains that I moved had only 1 email account each, with no website.

The domains that HostGator moved all worked perfectly. The domains that I created seemed to work fine (after HostGator gave me the right priveleges to create domains). But the main (and only) account for each domain could not receive email. I found out that if I created a second account under each domain, the second account could receive email, but the main account bounced emails back with "No Such User Here" errors.

Any ideas on what might cause this issue, and how to resolve it or even what is going on?

Thank you so much for the help and info.

Hi,
hostgator is one Reliable company one could find, iam with them for 2yr. + and iam 200% satisfied with their quality and response time.

you are not able to Recieve emails on default ID cause it must have been set to :FAIL: by default this is the best settings one could have to keep away loads of spam which can reach your default ID through dictionary attack.

if you still want to be exposed to risk of being SPAMMED you can always set any other value instead of :fail: on "default address" from your cpanel. but thats not recommended.

regards,
mohit
