Len
I think your corrections solved the problem, and would like to thank you
again for your help.
These are the new DNS records please let me know if there is anything wrong
with them.
www.normlmn.org A 63.228.60.105
normlmn.org A 63.228.60.105
pop.normlmn.org A 63.228.60.105
smtp.normlmn.org A 63.228.60.105
normlmn.org MX (rank 0) mail.normlmn.org (I change records via
web)
mail.normlmn.org MX (rank 0) mail.normlmn.org
normlmn.org MX (rank 1) normlmn.org (for some reason hotmail only
works with this added)
As for the mail.normalmn.org thank you for the suggestion but I will use a
forwarding virtual ip www.normlmn.org/email -> www.normlmn.org:8383
Another silly question? I am changing DNS hosts, can I keep the records on
the first server while I add the new dns server addresses (through
dotster.com) and wait for the day or two for the info to migrate? I cannot
see why not.
