Paul,
If I try to pull information on kakuna.up.ac.za, I get this:
> server 160.124.208.2
Default Server: secdns.posix.co.za
Address: 160.124.208.2
> kakuna.up.ac.za

Address: 160.124.112.10
*** [160.124.112.10] can't find kakuna.up.ac.za: Non-existent domain
Please note that I used each of your DNS servers, and none of them know
about kakuna.up.ac.za. They do know about kendy, but if they they don't
know about kakuna, they won't provide any MX records for it.
Bottom line? This appears to have nothing to do with James, and everything
to do with the DNS.

Hi,
Yes, I have 3 DNS servers in Config.xml,
<dnsserver>
<servers>
<server>160.124.208.2</server> <!-- DNS of service provider -->
<server>160.124.112.134</server> <!-- DNS of my machine -->
<server>160.124.112.10</server> <!-- Sec DNS of service
provider -->
</servers>
<authoritative>true</authoritative>
</dnsserver>
As mentioned before, the DNS records are as follows:
hakuna.up.ac.za MX 0 kendy.up.ac.za
When I try to ping hakuna.up.ac.za, the following occurs:
Pinging hakuna.up.ac.za [137.215.140.15] with 32 bytes of data:
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Ping statistics for 137.215.140.15:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss),
Any idea why there is a connection error?
Here is a trace of the log information when trying to send an email to

Hi Paul,
I assume you mean sending email to non-local email accounts..
Have you configured your DNS servers in Config.xml ?
Have you checked the logs for error messages?
