Oh brother. Sounds like you've run into the wrong "tech" at that end. Anybody with half an understanding of MX preferences should be able to figure that out. But things aren't what they used to be over at Post-Google. > Is there some way to set the MX records preference to 10? Not within the GUI. You could probably edit the file by hand at /etc/named/db.DOMAIN.TLD and then reload named. But I don't know what the long-term effects of that would be. (Operating with an abundance of caution, I typically don't try and make the system do something it wasn't intended to do, because it usually has unintended consequences down the road... but I'm not real daring with my production boxes!) -- Chris Gebhardt VIRTBIZ Internet Services Access, Web Hosting, Colocation, Dedicated www.virtbiz.com | toll-free (866) 4 VIRTBIZ _______________________________________________ Blueonyx mailing list [email protected] http://mail.blueonyx.it/mailman/listinfo/blueonyx
