    Alright the main problem is the following:
    Message 1CfQpQ-0008Gu-7e is no longer frozen
    delivering 1CfQpQ-0008Gu-7e
    LOG: MAIN
    lowest numbered MX record points to local host: rawforce.com
    LOG: MAIN
    == rob@rawforce.com R=lookuphost defer (-1): lowest numbered MX record points to local host
    LOG: MAIN
    Frozen
    Return to Mail Queue

    i've edited /etc/localdomains and added the actual domain "rawforce.com" to the list as well as our hostname "supremacy.rawforce.com" (we have some emails from cpanel that go to that address for some reason, but no biggy, goes to us anyway). that fixes the problem and the emails come through.

    the problem I'm encountering is that every time i run Rebuild/Fix Mail Dbs/Boxes or cpanel runs itself every night, those domains are removed and our mail doesn't work again. all i can say is "ARGH!".

    another problem along the same lines that we are having is cpanel adds the wrong entry for one of our accounts, aytal.com. it adds mail..aytal.com instead of mail.aytal.com... it doesn't do this for any other account, just this one for some reason.

    the cpanel forums are my last hope, i've tried all other resources.

    You don't mention what version of WHM/cPanel you are running. Also have you submitted a support ticket for this issue? Would suggest to keep your mail working, until further investigation, disable the nightly cPanel updates (upcp).

    I've had the same problem which means I need to go in and check the file everyday to make I'm getting emails through. Took me weeks to work it out aswell!

    Any news on a resolution?

    Adam.

    PS - I'm using the latest RELEASE build of cpanel/whm.

    Go on, have a guess
    Do you actually have a cPanel account for the domains with problems (or the domain parked against a cPanel account)? That is, the domain must be listed against a cPanel account in /var/cpanel/users/* to have it included in the /etc/localdomains rebuild. Obviously, you should also make sure it is not it /etc/remotedomains
