thank you, everyone, much appreciate advice and testing! I'll try to summarize how it went:
user is India complained he couldn't access geko.sbt.net.au mail server as there was an issue with some 'links' at data centre reported few hours earlier, I assumed it was related and didn't try to test next day I had reported, from same TLD users: - SPF rejects at gmail (original post here) - silent loss of gmail sent to the user (saw similar report on the list) - user in India still can't access mail server noticed that user in India can not resolve geko.sbt.net.au BUT can ping IP address name resolution not working ?? but, working everywhere else as a workaround I've told user in India to create hosts entry for geko.sbt.net.au - that worked question - could the name resolution fail from India be at all related to my name server timeouts/web central outages ? could the name resolution fail from India be at all related to some malware/virus hijacking of domain name resolution ? on users laptop ? though, before entering/editing host name in hosts file, geko just wouldn't resolve, but, could ping IP On Sat, September 17, 2022 7:30 pm, raf wrote: > So unless you added ip4:103.106.168.106 to the SPF > record after the bounce, I can't see what's wrong.

Matus, I checked with registrar, was advised I should be using NSx.PARTNERCONSOLE.NET, so shortly after I've edited the records as advised On Sun, September 18, 2022 1:26 pm, Viktor Dukhovni wrote: >> https://status.webcentral.au/ > DNS service at netregistry.net is gradually returning to normal.

Viktor, does this shows up on the https://status.webcentral.au/ somewhere, or how do you assess that ? couldn't find such ? thanks again to everyone, much appreciated Voytek
