lol... >What RFC change are you referring to?
I am echoing the verbs of one Eric S., who also said he found entries that were not an hour for hotmail. -2 for speaking another persons verbs. I just checked dnsstuff.com, and you are correct about the time as well. I was incorrect to forward any verbs -2 again for repeating them. -4 total. You bagged me on 2 occasions. :) I still have a DNS problem. And I am not quite sure how to address the problem. I unchecked the box that says "do not use recursion." Stopped and restarted the DNS service. We are a small shop. 1 dns server. I do not think I will be around long if I allow recursion because I do not have multiple DNS servers to do the restrictive recursion that I was directed to do. I obviously have a DNS server that is incorrectly configured. Or peered between a few duds? Help? J.J.

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? >Eric S also found out that their TTL's are not as short as everyone thinks. 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. 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. -Scott --- Declude: Anti-virus, Anti-spam and Anti-hijacking solutions for IMail. http://www.declude.com --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/ To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
