    Hello,
    I have a VPS and i facing a problem in sending mail through my hosted web site the problem is when i send mail so someone its failed and return me the delivery notice which says

    This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.
    
    A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
    recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:
    
      xyz@gmail.com
        retry time not reached for any host after a long failure period
      domainemail@serv1.domain.org
        (generated from C@domain.org)
        The mail server could not deliver mail to domainemail@serv1.domain.org.  The
    account or domain may not exist, they may be blacklisted, or missing the proper
    dns entries.
    Code (markup):
    I believe that sending mail address should be domainemail@domain.org but its domainemail@serv1.domain.org. If i guess it right can anyone guide me how to fix this problem :|

    You need to add PTR records to your server configuration and associate them with your domain name since your mail seems to be pointed to your VPS hostname, serv1.domain.org

    To setup PTR record you will need to contact your server provider (datacenter). They will setup it on your behalf.
