When you run nslookup with mx query option what does it tell you the mx record is. Below are the results I got. Looks like they have a valid MX record.
C:\>nslookup -q=mx uconn.edu Server: dns0.bcvloh.ameritech.net Address: 66.73.20.40 uconn.edu MX preference = 5, mail exchanger = uconnvm.uconn.edu uconn.edu nameserver = brcgate.uconn.edu uconn.edu nameserver = dca-ans-01.inet.qwest.net uconn.edu nameserver = nicky.uconn.edu uconnvm.uconn.edu internet address = 137.99.26.3 brcgate.uconn.edu internet address = 137.99.15.64 dca-ans-01.inet.qwest.net internet address = 205.171.9.242 nicky.uconn.edu internet address = 137.99.25.14 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dave Vantine" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Exchange Discussions" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, July 03, 2002 9:52 AM Subject: NDR to Uconn > Exch 5.5.
