Yes, I admit there is much to learn. I have much to learn about DNS. Just when you think you've got it, an RFC change (in March) throws everyone, and expecially me for a loop.
What RFC change are you referring to?
OK, that proves that your DNS servers weren't working properly, as we had told you. :)I just got off the phone with Eric S and he was kind enough to let me point Imail to one of his DNS servers until tommorrow. Here is a successful email as reported in the syslog:
Hmmm -- switching from your DNS servers (which were returning the wrong IPs) to Ipswitch's DNS servers (which are returning the correct IPs) means that the problem is at Hotmail how?The problem seems to be pointing to Hotmail.
Bzzt.. wrong answer. I said they were 1 hour, they are. Go to http://www.DNSstuff.com/tools/lookup.ch?name=hotmail.com&type=MX and see for yourself.Eric S also found out that their TTL's are not as short as everyone thinks.
It is possible that they changed them before you reported this issue, as I am sure that they had longer TTLs in the past. But they are *definitely* 1 hour right now, and have been for at least several days.
