OK Len,
What do I need to do to get a reverse on wcmail.net. Is this a DNS setting
I am missing?
Also, on the log stuff. AOL's log says there is NO To address, that is why
they dump the message. My IMail logs show each of the AOL accounts just
fine.
The reverse is one of the issues they brought up that might cause messages
to be dropped.
Sincerely,

perfect, 'cept no reverse.

your guess is as good as anybody's.

nothing illegal about that

one "reverses" an ip, not a hostname.
