I sent several emails within a 1 hour period, and 1.5 hours later, all
of the emails bounced back to me "Undeliverable mail".  Inside these
bounced emails was the message:

Unknown host: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

...where xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx has been used to protect the innocent.

Other unknow hosts were @aol.com, @verizon.net, @palm.com,
@worldnet.att.net, @msn.com

...hosts that obviously exist!  And the email addresses were valid,
legitimate addresses.

Why then would I get a rash of bounced emails with "Unknown host"?

I am using Imail Server 6.06.

How can I debug this?   The LOG file is not the easiest thing to
decipher.   Which leads me to my next question...  Is there some tool
that will make it easier to figure out what happened to a particular
email by scanning the LOG file?  Or is there a cheat sheet that explains
what a lot of the cryptic values represent?  E.g. SMTP (1676) finished
m:\spool\Q4ad7096.SMD status=1     What's a status=1?  Vs. a status=2?
What is a rdeliver?   What are the (numbers) in brackets?  Etc.
