Not much information in that post for anyone to help you. Always start with the ZCS version, post the full output of the following (always post this):

Code: Select all

zmcontrol -v
Where does this error message occur and why are you using the Proton Mail MX server?

Where does this error message occur and why are you using the Proton Mail MX server?

Then I'd suggest your question should be 'why does the PMG not resolve the address', this would appear to not be a ZCS problem. Did you run a DNS from the PMG server for the Protonmail server?

I didn't ask that, I asked if you do a dig for the proton mail server on the PMG server do you get a DNS answer? Are you using virtualization for your ZCS & PMG servers and/or are you behind a NAT router?

Yes, there is a DNS answer.
I’am using proxmox virtualization for ZCS & PMG, behnind NAT.
