Domain General: email forwards not working

You should be logged in to post new messages. Create an account.

Hi,

I can't seem to get a response out of the gandi email support form, so I
figured I would try this. I have three domains with gandi. One of them
is my major one, and it's the one that I have actual hosting for. My
main email address is at this domain, and email addresses from the
other two domains have always forwarded to it without issue. Recently,
I changed the email handling for the main domain to Google's "gmail for
your domain," and it's working fine. However, the two other domains now
seem incapable of forwarding mail. I keep getting an error from the
gandi Postfix program. Here it is:

This is the Postfix program at host lagavulin.gandi.net.
I'm sorry to have to inform you that your message could not be delivered
to one or more recipients. It's attached below.
For further assistance, please send mail to <postmaster>
If you do so, please include this problem report. You can delete your
own text from the attached returned message.

Hi,

same problem here. Just changed my domain to forward emails to gmail
account but something is not working. No response from Gandi email
support either.
Been checking all the faq and googled enough and I do think that
everything is fine with the settings.

ping: cannot resolve xxxxx.xxx: Unknown host

traceroute: unknown host xxxxx.xxx

Looking for an asnwer from Gandi team, please ?

Cheers,
Markus

I think the forwarding servers at Gandi are down. I haven't changed
anything about my gandi services in a long time, but as of yesterday
mail to at least one of my accounts is not being delivered either.

Yes we are currently working to get the service back as soon as possible.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

be forwarded over 12 hours later, I also know of earlier mails which
haven't arrived. I got my first mail through just 5 minutes ago it had
been delayed nearly 20hours.

Gandi should at least state that there's a problem on their web site
rather than the "Network Status: OK" that's there at the moment.
I also set up a new blog and am still waiting for the DNS to be updated
18 hours later, it's supposed to take 3 hours.

The network page is in the short todo list to have the detail service 
per service. The mail forwarding system is back for 3 hours now but 
still slow as we have huge mail queue to deliver.

We are currently working on the new Gandi mail architecture, it should 
be in place in march
I also set up a new blog and am still waiting for the DNS to be updated
18 hours later, it's supposed to take 3 hours.
Have you a ticket to our customer care, I confirm that (except for .FR) 
a DNS change takes less than 3 hours.

It's great that the forwards are working in general again. However,
forwarding to "gmail for your domain" is still not working. It's not
just delayed; I mean, it fails INSTANTLY by bouncing the message with
the error that's in my first post here. Please, Gandi, at least examine
the problem...this is a huge irritation for me. I've also confirmed that
my forwards can work, as I set one up temporarily to a non-gmail
address, and it's working fine. Also, a little tip: not responding to
customer service emails really enrages customers. I think if this new
forum were not here, I might be moving my domain hosting today instead
of typing this message.

Nope, that's one hour now and my blog name fm--.j2fm.net is still not
resolving.
There must be a glitch because I definitely set the blog with this name
not "blog.j2fm.net" and this is what was listed as the blog name on
www.gandi.net
I can administer my blog at blog.gandi.net and it also gives
fm--.j2fm.net as the blog address link under "View Site".
When I realised that my preferred blog hostname wasn't working the first
thing I tried was the default blog.<mydomain> which did resolve but told
me that no blog was associated with it (it doesn't resolve now though).

I'm on it and it's working for 30 mins minimum (last time I check)

Gmail often thinks that mail forwarded from Gandi (and sometimes even
Gandi's customer care replies!) are spam and instantly puts them in the
Spam (or Junk) folder.

Gmail (and Hotmail) users might want to check and see whether or not
this is the case, by logging into their online mail interfaces and
checking the Spam folder. 

Therefore, if your forwarding configuration (I am not talking about the
"Gmail for your domain" service, which has nothing to do with Gandi's
free e-mail forwarding service, but rather the creation of MX records
to point the domain to Google's mail servers) is correct, and if you do
not see your forwarded mails in your inbox, you should look in your spam
folder...

** a quick note about "Gmail for your domain" -> Before setting this up,
you might want to have a look at our FAQ, at the following page:
http://www.gandi.net/faq/view_question/en/...
Please keep in mind, however, that in the case of using that service, it
is Google that manages your mails and not Gandi - as you are using

Hi Ryan,

thanks for the answer. There are no Spam mails in Gmail folder because
none of emails are getting through.

To make things clear for me (bonehead):

1. I need to make email forwarding in Gandi service
2. I need to configure Gmail mail servers for the MX records in Gandi (I
am not using Gmail for your domain)
3. Everything should be working after step one and two

Cheers,
Markus

Thanks for keeping this active, Markus. I am also not getting messages
in any gmail spam folder because the messages, I'm pretty sure, are
never making it past Gandi at all. That's why I'm getting that Postfix
error that is listed in my very first post, the error that Gandi has
YET TO RESPOND TO AT ALL!!!!! I am not incompetent, and I know that I
have both my google MX records and my Gandi forwards set up correctly;
it's just the combination that is not working. Gandi, here's the deal
one more time (my handle is DC701-GANDI so you can look this up):

I have three domains relevant to this problem for which Gandi handles
the DNS: a.com, b.com, c.org
c.org is the primary one, and it's the one for which I have gmail for
your domain set up, so my main address is me@c.org
I have had forwards for quite some time that point foo@a.com and
bar@b.com to me@c.org, and they have always worked. Now, however, mail
to foo@a.com or bar@b.com bounces with the Postfix error of "user
unkown in virtual alias table." From what I can google about this
error, it looks like Gandi is looking for some email account on c.org
on its own servers instead of going to my mx records and sending it on
to google. No other place has trouble sending mail to me@c.org, just my
gandi forwards.

Gandi, for the love of god, please respond. I mean, you've helped
somebody else with an unrelated problem in front of my eyes in my own
thread about this, and I have yet to hear a peep out of you for going
on five days now. This is unacceptable.
Ok I missed that Ryan up there was from Gandi, so sorry about snapping
in the last post...at least the problem has some attention now. It's
just hard to describe the anger that results from being ignored
completely for four or five days when, frankly, having working email is
as important as it is these days.

Hi Markus:

It is not possible to use Gandi's e-mail forwarding AND Gmail's MX at
the same time, because they each requires their own MX entry in a
Gandi's Zone file. 

This is because if you want to have Gandi forward your mail, you will
use Gandi's MX records (so our servers handle your mail); but if you
want to use Gmail's 

You see, Gandi's mail forwarding uses our mail servers (MX records) but
Gmail requires Google's mail servers (their MX records). You cannot mix
the two - you must choose either Gandi's mail servers or Google's mail
servers.

Using Google's mail servers however requires that you have told Google
beforehand the name of your domain, and have set up your account with
them - this program is the "Gmail for your domain". If you are using a
different Google program, please let us all know what it is.

3. Everything should be working after step one and two
-> No, because if you do both step 1 and 2 the result will be that
neither will work. You must choose between forwarding your mail using
Gandi's mail servers, or pointing your domain to Google's mail servers
and having them manage your mail.

Hi DC,

Don't worry about snapping - that just means you are human :) 

I will look at your situation in detail tomorrow (it is Sunday night
now, and I am posting from home...), but from what I have read so far,
you appear to be trying to do the same thing as Markus, which is use
both Gandi's mail forwarding service AND Google's MX records to send
e-mail via your Gmail account - which is impossible because each
require their own MX records pointing to different mail servers...

In the meantime, check your Gandi DNS zone: if you are on
a.dns.gandi.net b.dns.gandi.net and c.dns.gandi.net and you have set up
e-mail forwarding addresses and your MX records are as follows, you are
perfectly configued to use our e-mail forwarding:

@ 10800 IN MX 10 redir-mail-telehouse2.gandi.net.
@ 10800 IN MX 10 redir-mail-telehouse1.gandi.net.

But of course you will not be able to use Googl's servers, or their
service, because you are pointing your domain to our mail servers.

If you have set up your MX records in Gandi's DNS to be configured for
the "Gmail for your domain" program (Google's letting you use their
mail servers for free) - or some other Gmail program I am unaware of,
then your zone must look like the following (but then, of course you
will not be able to use Gandi's e-mail forwarding!):

@  	MX  	ASPMX5.GOOGLEMAIL.COM.  5  	8 hours  	 
@ 	MX 	ASPMX4.GOOGLEMAIL.COM. 	5 	8 hours 	
@ 	MX 	ASPMX3.GOOGLEMAIL.COM. 	5 	8 hours 	
@ 	MX 	ASPMX2.GOOGLEMAIL.COM. 	5 	8 hours 	
@ 	MX 	ALT2.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM. 3 	8 hours 	
@ 	MX 	ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM. 	1 	8 hours 	
@ 	MX 	ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM. 3 	8 hours 	

You can set up forwarding if you are using Google's mail servers, but
you can only set that up from within your Gmail account. Additionally,
they will only work if you have configured Google's servers beforehand
to reply to requests for your domain name.

This above information is to help everyone, but DC, I will reply to you
personally via the support ticket you sent.
Ryan
http://www.gandi.net/
Thank you very much, Ryan; I look forward to getting this all working. I
promise you that I'm not trying to use gandi forwarding and gmail on the
same domain, though. My main domain has the appropriate google mx
records, and the other two have the gandi mx records. I'm only using
gandi mail forwarding on the two that have gandi mx records, and the
forwarding works fine, so long as it's not to addresses on the domain
that is using the google mx records. Thanks again for looking at this.
Hi again and good morning,

this time I have good news. My email forwarding is working now.

So now my forwarded emails are going straight to gmail accounts where
the forwarding is pointing to.

Explanations on the Gandi site are not very clear on this setup. My
mistake was that I thought that I should use the google mail servers on
the MX field but that is just plain wrong. I should have thought about
but hey we are just humans after all ;-)

Google mail server can be used only in the case when you have setup your
domain to google (Google Apps for Your Domain). Check
http://www.google.com/a/

So if you want to have a gmail account with email address like
john.doe@gmail.com and would like to forward john.doe@doe.com emails to
it then you must use Gandi MX information:

@ 10800 IN MX 10 redir-mail-telehouse2.gandi.net.
@ 10800 IN MX 10 redir-mail-telehouse1.gandi.net.

and Gandi DNS !!! You can still change the sender address from Gmail to
be doe.com and not gmail.com if you want.

If you are about to setup Google Apps for Your Domain setup then you
must use Google MX.

Thanks Ryan for clearing things out.

Cheers,
Markus

I will look at your situation in detail tomorrow (it is Sunday night
now, and I am posting from home...), but from what I have read so far,
you appear to be trying to do the same thing as Markus, which is use
both Gandi's mail forwarding service AND Google's MX records to send
e-mail via your Gmail account - which is impossible because each
require their own MX records pointing to different mail servers...

In the meantime, check your Gandi DNS zone: if you are on
a.dns.gandi.net b.dns.gandi.net and c.dns.gandi.net and you have set
up
e-mail forwarding addresses and your MX records are as follows, you
are
perfectly configued to use our e-mail forwarding:

@ 10800 IN MX 10 redir-mail-telehouse2.gandi.net.
@ 10800 IN MX 10 redir-mail-telehouse1.gandi.net.

But of course you will not be able to use Googl's servers, or their
service, because you are pointing your domain to our mail servers.

If you have set up your MX records in Gandi's DNS to be configured for
the "Gmail for your domain" program (Google's letting you use their
mail servers for free) - or some other Gmail program I am unaware of,
then your zone must look like the following (but then, of course you
will not be able to use Gandi's e-mail forwarding!):

@  	MX  	ASPMX5.GOOGLEMAIL.COM.  5  	8 hours  	 
@ 	MX 	ASPMX4.GOOGLEMAIL.COM. 	5 	8 hours 	
@ 	MX 	ASPMX3.GOOGLEMAIL.COM. 	5 	8 hours 	
@ 	MX 	ASPMX2.GOOGLEMAIL.COM. 	5 	8 hours 	
@ 	MX 	ALT2.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM. 3 	8 hours 	
@ 	MX 	ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM. 	1 	8 hours 	
@ 	MX 	ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM. 3 	8 hours 	

You can set up forwarding if you are using Google's mail servers, but
you can only set that up from within your Gmail account. Additionally,
they will only work if you have configured Google's servers beforehand
to reply to requests for your domain name.

This above information is to help everyone, but DC, I will reply to
you
personally via the support ticket you sent.
Just want to express gratitude for information :)
