I am getting a headache....everything was working until about 3 or 4 hours
ago....I know the DNS records are a mess and I am trying to get through and
correct things, but why would the mx records which are resolving to
mail.tidalwave.net and that goes to 208.206.112.71, which is the IMAIL
server for tidalwave not be working for some people all of a sudden.
For people that have sent me error messages one has been the following:
