Re: [IMail Forum] NSLOOKUP Fails

[Len Conrad]

My DNS, BIND 8.1.2 in Paris, finds it just fine:

    QUESTIONS:
        tampoprint.com, type = MX, class = IN
    ANSWERS:
    ->  tampoprint.com
        preference = 10, mail exchanger = 199.227.17.90
        ttl = 3600(1 hour)

The mail exchanger is listed as an ip address, whereas the MX usually points to a hostname.

===========

   I have a user trying to send an e-mail message to a domain
(tampoprint.com) but my system cannot find it (i.e. nslookup tampoprint.com)
fails. But every other domain I try works fine and I can find tampoprint.com
from other ISPs. What could be wrong?

    In the meantime, I am trying to find the IP address of their mail server
so they can send their messages directly without the name lookup. How can I
find that?
