[Mailman-Users] Do I need an MX Record

[Bill Hilburn]

You only need an MX record for your domain (mlsnet.com) but you will need an A 
record for lists.mlsnet.com that resolves to your mail server IP, your mail 
server will also need to be told it handles mail for lists.mlsnet.com

Hope this helps!
