In addition to my previous message - OK, I've gone and put the necessary
software on the linux side of this thing and asked the appropriate
questions - if I do a 'dig' on alienmelon i find:
; <<>> DiG 9.1.2 <<>> -t mx alienmelon.com

which implies that alienemelon uses mail.alienmelon.com to handle its
mail. So a ping to that to see if it exists gives us
C:\WINDOWS>ping mail.alienmelon.com
