For some reason, I am unable to Ping (or) Telnet my Mail Server from within my own network. If I do a ping . It comes back saying: Bad IP address mail.carrz-fox-fire.com.   If I Telnet I get this back. Connect Failed! : Host Name: mail.carrz-fox-fire.com.   BUT, I have a machine that I take of the network, to connect thru a dialup to the internet, and I am able to Ping & Telnet, My mail server with it, And send and receive mail with it as well.     What do you think that could possibly cause this issue.?? I am able to browse the network, and am able to go out to the internet. But, Since the mail server started doing to "Stack Connect Failed" .. And I was able to fix it, It seemed that it took out my network for being able to communicate with it??     Any suggestions??? I have experienced some wild happenings in my network before. But have never experiences anything like this before??   Wayne
