The server doesn't accept recipient@domain.com

[disciple]

Hi,

Been struggling with this for a couple of hours, what am I doing wrong? This is the plan:

Installed EFA on CentOS 6.9, updated it all and setup one domain. On this domain I also have my own mailserver (on another server). Now I've changed the MX records to:

MX 10 efa-mailfilter.mydomain.com
MX 20 mymailserver.mydomain.com

All mail towards my domain seem to be going via EFA. Hooray. But now I want to send emails from my domain. This doesn't work. I get the error that the server doesn't accept either the sender or the recipient. I don't understand this since the mailaccounts are created on mymailserver.mydomain.com. IMAP and SMTP server are mymailserver.mydomain.com. So why would it try to send via EFA (I'm guessing that is why I'm getting the error)?

My outgoing mail from my clients should just go via mymailserver.mydomain.com and not efa-mailfilter.mydomain.com.

What am I doing wrong / how to solve this?

Wow it seems this has nothing to do with EFA but a big coincidence is that my original email server is having problems... So never mind the above for now, I think I'll have to fix it somewhere else.

Two unrelated follow up questions if I may:

1. What would be the recommended setup if I would want two EFA mailfilters, one maybe the backup of the other? Is there some sort of fallback configuration possible or should I just configure them the exact same way?

2. Is there an ETA on the new EFA software? Compatible with CentOS 7?

2. CentOS 7 (eFa 4) ETA is going to be pushed back a little. Original plan was about this time, but with the security fixes needed in v3, v4 was derailed for a while. We are going to spend a lot of time and effort on v4 to make it great. EoL for CentOS 6.9 is November 30th, 2020 (https://wiki.centos.org/About/Product).
