kK. Looking into spitting them out. Already have my smtp.inwave.com going to another server to offload the traffic of my customers sending email. But will look into splitting it out more. Also I tried a Gateway and it worked fine, but got alot of the MX Connect Fail messages on my gateway machine that was sending to Server A.
Thanks for info and any more ideas...really appreciated.
