I am not sure I even did this right, but I am trying to setup some sub domains with email services. So I want to have an email address like [email protected]. My problem is getting put in right. I am not sure I did.

$ORIGIN phxscouting.com.
$TTL 3600
@ IN SOA ns1.softlayer.com. root.phxscouting.com. (

You specified "$ORIGIN phxscouting.com." at the top of the file, which means the name server will append "phxscouting.com." to the end of every entry following in the file that isn't terminated with a period.

So as you currently have it specified, the first MX line

227.phxscouting.com 3600 IN MX 20 ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM.

will actually refer to a mail address of "[email protected]". You instead should specify the line as

227 3600 IN MX 20 ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM.

or

227.phxscouting.com. 3600 IN MX 20 ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM.

which would match "[email protected]".

It's not necessary to specify each time a TTL of 3600, it's already your default value because your default entry : $TTL 3600
