Hi Andy-
What happens if you do an NSLOOKUP and then use the "server" command to
specify your DNS server. Then try to query for domain names.
Duh. I should have thought of that. Thanks.
It does give an interesting result. I am running Smarter Mail on this box,
with its DNS pointed to 127.0.0.1 as usual. When I remove the outside DNS
addresses from the NIC setup, SM could not find the destination mail servers
and the outbound messages sat in the spool until they timed out. I was
assuming that because SM couldn't find the domains the DNS wasn't resolving
them.
But it seems the DNS does resolve addresses when the upstream resolvers are
removed.
And then I ran some tests this morning, and everything works fine now.
So I still don't know what went wrong. I guess I'll leave it for now and
keep an eye on things.
