<Ramil> again, having problems with mail sent from you... what mail reader
do you use?

Why do you need to perform hundreds if not thousands of lookups per day?  Is
your volume that high?

Thanks Paul,
But the API allows only to check one domain at a time, which will consume=
 a lot of bandwidth to check
several hundreds (or may be thousands) of domains daily.
I think no need to do DNS queries as the lists wanted to be checked are o=
btained from comparing the root
zone files to extract dropped domains, so the domains are not found in th=
e root zone files and so sure
they will not resolve.

Best Regards,
