Imported a Cpanel account, and I am concerned email accounts and forwarders are messed up some…
The first issue was we had created a catchall, and then creating some new forwarders, but the forwarders and email accounts were not going to the emails we wanted, they were all going to the catch all. The catchall was to go to catchall@mydomain.com.
When I deleted this and added @mydomain.com as the additional email addresses in the catchall account, I can see the Alias is now catchall-mydomain.com (@ changed to -).
But the new email accounts and aliases I setup are still not going anywhere.
I deleted the catchall and email is still not going to the users mailboxes or forwarders. Its going no where. No bounce backs.
Is this anything to do with it, its only suspicious thing I can find in the logs:

Ok I think I sorted it… I had an alias server the same name as the hostname. This was a point I picked up on another forum somewhere after searching the past hour! Removed the alias server and it all works OK. PHEW!
