I turned off IMail's internal DNS caching in order to avoid situations
like this. I don't host that many local accounts, but I haven't seen
any build-ups in my spool either time that Hotmail has had issues. My
thought is that maybe you cached records in IMail that corespond to the
servers that aren't functioning properly? This is one of the reasons
why I turned this off at least. Matt Robert Shubert wrote: Incidentally, Hotmail - as of a few day ago - does acknowledge the problem and said they are working on it. I had to tell my server to retry for a day before I could start sending to hotmail again.R -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Colbeck, Andrew Sent: Tuesday, May 18, 2004 12:40 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Hotmail not accept inbound mail? I'm seeing 2 things: My default Imail queuing numbers gave too much emphasis on retry threads and frequency. I've lowered them. The same 1/4 of the Hotmail MX hosts are still down this week. I stuffed the responsive ones into my cacheing DNS server in a hotmail.com zone and that alleviated the queue. The next day I checked my Imail log, because I wanted to get rid of that hotmail.com workaround before it bit me, and I found that the remaining 3/4 of the servers still regularly told my server to come back later, refused connection, or dropped the connection.
