either you're not telling us something or have a misunderstanding or i dunno. why do the mx records for different domains have to be different? domain1 MX 10 a.mx.isp.com domain1 MX 20 b.mx.isp.com domain1 MX 30 c.mx.isp.com domain2 MX 10 a.mx.isp.com domain2 MX 20 b.mx.isp.com domain2 MX 30 c.mx.isp.com domain3 MX 10 a.mx.isp.com domain3 MX 20 b.mx.isp.com domain3 MX 30 c.mx.isp.com i run mailservers for hundreds or thousands (too lazy to check atm) domains that way. -- Henning Brauer, [email protected], [email protected] BS Web Services, http://bsws.de Full-Service ISP - Secure Hosting, Mail and DNS Services Dedicated Servers, Rootservers, Application Hosting
