Re: [IMail Forum] NSLOOKUP Fails

[## Dusty Carden]

You can force Imail to send mail to a broken DNS by putting that entry in the hosts file in \System32\Drivers\Etc Shoddy way to gave to do this but having a broken DNS is pretty bad too.   Dusty -----Original Message----- From: Len Conrad <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thursday, October 28, 1999 2:07 PM Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] NSLOOKUP Fails 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. Len ===========    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?
