Actually I had this problem today. Talked to tech and everything. Besides
the fact that my DNS was all screwed up, though it was working, because I
have more than one ip address Imail doesn't know which one to use. So if
they have an internal ip address that isn't routable Imail might be screwing
up and trying to use that. If you do have more than one ip address write
back because the description on how to fix it is really big. Oh an guys if
you're looking for some good tools to do NSLookup and stuff I found a few
freeware things today. http://www.blighty.com/products/spade/
http://www.ping.be/cyberkit they are both really awesome programs. Does
anyone out there have any websites regarding DNS, maybe some optimizing or
some info on what all the meanings are of the things inside it. Particularly
Microsoft DNS.

I see in DNS&BIND that the MX record needs to be a name, but it doesn't
explain why an IP address wouldn't work. I guess that's a question for
another list :)

All indications indicate that it did, although I'm waiting for confirmation
from the other end.
Thanks again,
