[Mailman-Users] Do I need an MX Record

 From the last error there, it looks like your mail server is trying to  
deliver mail for lists.mlsnet.com to an smtp server at 12.105.18.209.   
I don't know what server that is, but it needs to be running an some  
sort of smtp server to accept email.  If that is not where the email  
should be going, then an MX record may be appropriate to point it to  
the appropriate location.
