RFC-974, page 4, says that if no MX record is present for a domain, the SMTP implementation should treat the domain name as a mail host, and attempt to connect directly to it. As the host at the IP address listed for <pantex.com> appears to be a valid mail exchanger, I would say they are using that case. -- Ben Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | The opinions expressed in this message are those of the author and do not | | necessarily represent the views or policy of any other person, entity or | | organization.
