64 IP is my gs
173 IP goes to <argo<ollectiveThis appears to me as if:
adriang.com will direct to 173 IP
www.adriang.com will direct to 173 IP
any mail sent to @adriang.com will go to 64 IP and be managed by my gridserver.Now why the F doesn't webmail.adriang.com work? Apparently *.adriang.com will go to 64 IP
... it doesn't, it directs to the URL cloaked 173 <argo portfolio.
5 Responses from (mt) were all incorrect and he kept fumbling for answers. I don't want to create a new subdomain or edit my .htaccess, this interface should manage it correctly but doesn't.
The suggested a CNAME, this also didn't work?
Any takers?

well you can always add a webmail A record and see what happens. a couple things- you're probably aware that DNS takes time to propagate, how long are you waiting to see that changes are or aren't working? your TTL is currently 12 hours. are you flushing your local DNS cache before testing each iteration?
if you're on a mac, fire up terminal and type dig whatever.domain.com +trace and you can see the dns entries returned

Unsure how to flush DNS cache.
Waiting sufficient time yes.

in windows command prompt: ipconfig /flushdns
in os x terminal: dscacheutil -flushcache
