    Hi Digital Man
    (me)

    try to explain want I was tring to do per 1stchoicecore.co.nz
    and bbs mail got same thing back I don't understand but you might ---------------------------------------------------------------------- (support)
    mail Reflector is not an OUTBOUND service, and only directs inbound emails based on the MX records being setup properly for us to receive it, and then the reflector service setup with a hostname (or IP address) to forward the email to, using any port number. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- (me)
    I am unsure if from my eundora (private Account) to sneaky@1stchoicecore.co.nz is outbound or inbound I would od thought it would be inboundbut I could be wrong. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- (support)
    The hostname "mail.1stchoicecore.co.nz " is currently setup within the reflector service as the "server" to send email to. This hostnames needs to be created and resolve to your public IP address to receive emails ----------------------------------------------------------------
    (me)

    Sneaky, 1stchoicecore.co.nz is your BBS right? I connected to it via HTTP(web). Change your configuration on in the mail reflector to send mail to just 1stchoicecore.co.nz instead of mail.1stchoicecore.co.nz. That should fix it.

    If you really want mail.1stchoicecore.co.cz then you will need a DNS A record created in your DNS. Your Domain Name Registrar wouldprovide the DNS. It would just be easier to send mail to your BBS domain name and not jave to screw with an MX record (something I learned today).,

    Yes that is right and yes it did work, so now e-mail is back flowing to my bbs
    and I would like to thank you very much for help with my reflector problem..

    just a question no-ip.com support suggested I went to "pop3 imap email" service
    would that direct mail to my bbs or not.

    Thank you

    no! those are end user choices... not server-to-server... whomever offered those options apparently didn't understand your problem, either...

    No the support didn't understand my problem, but I got help from the bbs community
    (just cannot thing of the persons name at present) but in Reflector option I have
    mail.1stchoicecore.co.nz and should have been just 1stchoicecore.co.nz and e-mail is flowing great now so that cool.
