Any one using Google Apps for their VPS?
If so, do you have any issues with emails from your website's web forms, like a "your feedback page, or some web server notification emails, not reaching your google apps email account?
I've had this annoying issue before with a php application hosted on other webhost (not jodohost). I could not get my php-based site to send mail to the google apps account for that domain. I later had to use a hack to get it work.
Google notes the problem here on their support page, and states the issue as
I'm considering offloading my mail to an external mail host (I started another thread about this) but I'm wondering specifically if there are any issues with emailing to Google Apps from ASP.NET applications.
How do set the mail agent on my WinVPS to not handle mail for a domain? I assume I could still do mail for other domains, but just not for the domain tied to Google Apps? Any instructions on this?
As a sidenote for people with cPanel web hosts you can do this by unchecking the setting in the CPanel interface MX records configuration called "Always accept mail locally even if the primary mx does not point to this server."
I'm just unclear how to do it on a WinVPS machine and I only want to do it for domains that have a Google Apps account. Not all the domains on my WinVPS will use Google Apps but will use the servers mail agent. Any advice?

Their solution:If you have a form (using PHP/ASP/etc) on your website that is configured to send a message to your Google Apps email account, but you never receive mail from your website's form
To resolve this issue, notify the mail agent running on the server that hosts your website that it is not also responsible for handling mail for your domain. Contact your web host for specific instructions.
