Email problem with main account

[sergio]

I have now sent a trial message to my alias and to my main email address of my main email account (triestemia@triestemia.com)
Everything is OK with the aliases, but with triestemia@triestemia.com i haven't received the message sent.
The site is on Astro. Could be this a problem connected to the Astro reload or there is something that I might set up on the account?

I see that you have a few aliases pointing to your shell account - this is not necessary, as you also have your Catch-all account enabled. Please view your Activation Letter (or the help within the CNC) for more details on this feature.

The hardware replacement would have had nothing to do with your email - no software or data was changed, only some of the physical hardware was replaced...

I have tha Catch-all enable, but I like to have alias because catch-all disabled is a more protection vs spam or some email address that i would no more to use.

However the problem is not solved.
With Catch-all enabled
"you can send mail to anything@triestemia.com and you will receive it at your shell email account"
Also if catch-all should be enabled the main account should be able to receive messages (not only the aliases) I think.

But in this moment if I send a message to the main account (triestemia@triestemia.com) the message disappears (??). Today I'll try to send them from another Internet connection, but if i arrive regularly to send to aliases... why not to account??

I manage several email account and alias on another server and this was never happened (but it is Unix, not Linux). This is only for to say that there are more years that I manage email accounts and this is not a new thing for me, also if now the environment changes.

PS: A part of the aliases goes to the other two POP accounts for dividing the messages between our staff. The aliases on the main account are only four.

After some trials and researches I think to have understood the problem. ;)[nbsp][nbsp]

I have move the domain but on the old server i have another site and i have used that POP account for the trials. But the domain triestemia.com on that server is still active (also DNS) and so the messages sent there was using their DNS and so i have found in the spool of that server the messages!

Sometime to change server is a mad thing ;)[nbsp][nbsp]

Thanks and have a nice day

Sergio

PS: the aliases were running because they were differents on the old server.
