It shouldn't matter where you run your dns query from. In some cases of
split-DNS scenarios (if you don't have your internal DNS forward to you
external), you can still run nslookup from a workstation, you will just need
to specify the address of you external DNS server so that will be where
nslookup runs it's query against.

Just out of interest.
Do you have to do the 'nslookup'from your exchange server or can you do it
from an NT workstation command prompt?
Many thanks

it means there was an error trying to resolve the remote host name to an IP
address (DNS query). perhaps your DNS has issues.....

go to command prompt, type 'nslookup' to start nslookup utility
type the command 'set type=mx' and hit enter
enter the domain you want to find the MX record for.
if you have 95/98 this won't work, go to www.tucows.com and download a DNS
utility.
