Email problems within VPS Domains

Hello All, I have a VPS with Cpanel installed and so far its been working great! I have 5 domains running on it, and so far the only issue I'm running into is sending & receiving emails between domains that are hosted on this VPS. I can send to and receive from any other domain except for the ones that are hosted on the same VPS. I'm not sure if its a setting in Cpanel or misconfiguration. Here is the error:

This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

Check localdomains to make sure the domains on the server are listed there: cat /etc/localdomains

Hello :) Yes, check to make sure the domain names exist in /etc/localdomains and that you have created the email accounts you are sending to/from. Thank you.

Hello, Thank you for the suggestions. I connected to the VPS via SSH and copied the command that you gave, however I got an error message: cat: /etc/localdomains: Permission denied I have my VPS with GoDaddy and they don't allow to login as a root, I can only login with the username that I created for the server. Or do I need to check the /etc/localdomains/ through Cpanel/WHM? Please advice. Thank you! [COLOR="silver">- - - Updated - - - I also found this article: http://forums.cpanel.net/f43/etc-localdomains-101017.html I don't have those options in my cpanel, its a bit outdated so maybe the newer versions of cpanel don't have those options anymore

I think I solved it. For each domain under EDIT MX ENTRY, I selected whether this is a LOCAL or REMOTE MAIL EXCHENGER (as I use some that are local and some remote) and now I'm able to send and receive between domains that are hosted on VPS and all others. Thank you!
