Sandy,
I know what NSLOOKUP is, however I don't know what you mean "...with SET
TYPE=MX against Imail's DNS servers...". What do I type at the DOS
prompt?
This is all I can do right now...
DNS request timed out.
timeout was 2 seconds.
*** Can't find server name for address 198.6.1.5: Timed out
Default Server: cache03.ns.uu.net
Address: 198.6.1.4
> set type=MX
It is quite common that I get "DNS request timed out" errors. Sometimes
for more than one server. It's been like that, on and off, sporadic,
for months. I don't know if this is related to my problem or not.
