An interesting development:
I removed Zimbra completely (after backing-up, of course) and ran the installation again.
I get this message:
Code:
DNS ERROR resolving MX for mail.xxxxx.xxx
It is suggested that the domain name have an MX record configured in DNS
Change domain name? [Yes]
But if I run "dig xxxxxxx.xxx"
Code:
[root@mail zcs]# dig xxxxxxx.xxx
; <<>> DiG 9.3.4-P1 <<>> xxxxxxx.xxx

The IP address is correct.
Running nslookup:
Code:
[root@mail zcs]# nslookup
> set type=mx
> xxxxxxxx.xxx
Server: 196.22.132.202
Address: 196.22.132.202#53
Non-authoritative answer:
xxxxxxxx.xxx mail exchanger = 0 mail.xxxxxxxx.xxx. <-- Correct MX record
Authoritative answers can be found from:
xxxxxxxx.xxx nameserver = ns3.zoneedit.com.
xxxxxxxx.xxx nameserver = ns9.zoneedit.com.
mail.xxxxxxxx.xxx internet address = 41.204.218.xx
ns3.zoneedit.com internet address = 76.74.236.21
ns9.zoneedit.com internet address = 66.240.231.42
> exit
Hosts file:
Code:
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.

Running host xxxxxxxx.xxx
Code:
[root@mail zcs]# host xxxxxxxx.xxx
xxxxxxxx.xxxa has address 41.204.218.xx
xxxxxxxx.xxx mail is handled by 0 mail.xxxxxxxx.xxx.
[root@mail zcs]#
What am I missing?
