I have been working with one of our customers to transfer their domain to us from Verisign. They have a WHOIS email that shows the [EMAIL PROTECTED] The problem is that when they log in to their Verisign account, the email information is correct but it is not updating the WHOIS. I'd hate to see the domain owners somehow caught up in this when some of them may be trying to do the right thing. Some may guess the reason they do this is to prevent transfers away since there is no valid email address for the admin contact for the gaining registrar to send the transfer authorization to. -- Chris Scott Host Orlando, Inc. http://www.hostorlando.com/
