I'm posting this more for my sanity and less as a call for assistance.
As it says on the tin:
A bit more detail:
Nameservers for a domain are not on the cpanel server, are resolving to the server everywhere I tested from.
Gmail, and anywhere else was bouncing, without actually showing a bounce in the exim log on the server, when trying to send a test email to the server, from anywhere not on the server.
( With "Your message wasn't delivered toemail because the address couldn't be found, or is unable to receive mail."
Fairly typical for either DNS resolving to the wrong server or perhaps the email not actually existing.
The weird part:
Changing, on said cpanel server, the email exchanger setting from remote to local, suddenly all emails sent to the server stop bouncing.
My question is thus:
Shouldn't have that done nothing as email exchanger isn't actually supposed to affect incoming email?
It's literally the only change done on the server end in the past 24 hours.
IE does anyone have a clue on why has that actually made it suddenly work?
If anyone can confirm I'm not crazy, I would appreciate it.
