553 mail.bakersfieldchamber.org. config error: mail loops back to me (MX
problem?)

--

DNS :

Server:  ns1.bakersfield.net
Address:  208.19.97.3

bakersfieldchamber.org  MX preference = 10,  mail exchanger =
mail.bakersfieldchamber.org

bakersfieldchamber.org  nameserver = ns1.bakersfield.ne
bakersfieldchamber.org  nameserver = ns2.bakersfield.ne

mail.bakersfieldchamber.org     internet address = 208.19.97.249

ns1.bakersfield.net     internet address = 208.19.97.3
ns2.bakersfield.net     internet address = 208.19.97.4

I have asked several other people if they had any ideas and they also state
they are baffled by this..

Any help is appreciated..

        $ telnet 208.19.97.249 25
        Trying 208.19.97.249...
        Connected to 208.19.97.249.
        Escape character is '^]'.
        220 X1 NT-ESMTP Server bakersfield.net (IMail 6.00 10473-1)

If I'm interpreting this correctly, it means that mail.bakersfieldchamber.org
doesn't know how to handle the mail locally, but is told to send the mail to
itself when it checks the MX.

When I have that problem I most often find that I've inadevertantly
left a domain name out of the sendmail.cw file - the file which
says what domains for which we will accept mail.
