Thanks Cory,
I would suggest then that if this is truly the case, IPSwitch update their online manual to reflect this. I was following the instructions which imply you can enter more than 1 address. And I quote:
"Domain Name Server address. The IP address of the system that provides domain name service for your network. You can enter multiple name servers here, separated by a space. This option is required in order to send mail externally."
Better yet, make it so iMail can use more than 1 address ;-)
Thanks,
George
