Neither of those servers (ns1.freeservers.com & ns2.freeservers.com) provide
recursive lookups. They only respond to queries for domains they are
authoritative for.

Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] Can't send to external domains
OK. So if this is my own DNS info:
<nslookup:keepkidshealthy.com/A/208.185.127.194>
Authoritative answer:
keepkidshealthy.com A 86400 64.226.244.120
Authority:
keepkidshealthy.com NS 86400 ns1.freeservers.com
208.185.127.192
keepkidshealthy.com NS 86400 ns2.freeservers.com
208.185.127.193
NSLookup normal completion.
Do I need to use the DNS at ns1.freeservers.com?
Is the Interland DNS (my web host) not working for me to send mail because
it is not authoritative?
Since the ns1.freeservers.com DNS doesn't work in my SMTP settings to send
mail, then is the problem with them?
Again, I can send mail to external domains if I use the test DNS from
ipswitch.
Thanks.
