Sentora and 1and1: emails keep disappearing

    I have a server with Sentora installed on CentOS 6 and a domain (let's say mydomain.com) bought from 1and1.

    Here are the settings I made in 1and1 web interface:

    Name Server Settings
    Name servers:
    (*) 1&1 name servers
    ( ) Other name servers

    A/AAAA and CNAME Records
    IP address (A Record):
    ( ) 1&1 IP address
    (*) Other IP address
    IPv4 Address 111.222.33.44
    IPv6 Address (empty)

    MX Records
    Mail Exchanger (MX Record):
    ( ) 1&1 mail server
    (*) Other mail server
    MX1 mail.mydomain.com Priority 10
    MX2
    MX3
    MX4

    TXT and SRV Records
    (none)

    In Sentora I made a mailbox
    I sent an email from my other mailbox to , it did not arrive nor I received an error response from the server.
    And the other way round, mails from to are silently dropped too.

    Also while I can see target mail.mydomain.com in Domain Management / DNS Manager I cannot resolve mail.mydomain.com.

    What did I do wrong and how to fix it?

    Is there actually a mail-server running on your host?
