> Is anyone else bouncing email because the worldnic dns servers aren't
responding?
They are FUBAR, and have been for several days. FYI, Worldnic was
apparently bought out by Network Solutions. Their DNS servers for the
past 4 days or so have apparently been acting in a way similar to lame
nameservers. Specifically, they would respond to DNS requests with the
"recursion desired" flag set, but not to DNS requests without that flag
set (*unless* the answer was recently looked up).
I've been recommending that people with these domains [1] switch to a
decent DNS hosting company (such as dnsmadeeasy.com), and once that is
working, switch to a decent domain registrar (there are plenty out there).

problem, or at least confirm it?
