Sorry to resort to ad hominem, but you're a technological imbecile. There is this magic thing in DNS called MX record. Read about it. Not to mention the practice of blocking ICMP at the firewall, which would result in pings not working. -MW-

Lots of machines don't accept pings anymore, either for security reasons or whatever. That's independent of whether those names accept email, or whether you can find MX records for them. In particular, most big ISPs have multiple machines accepting mail; if you wanted to ping, you'd have to try box1.bigisp.com, box2.bigisp.com, box3.bigisp.com, ... Pipeline was in the big-ISP business, and I suspect they've been eaten enough times that pipeline is just an alias on a big email server farm.

Considering the glitches and mis-steps that often accompany server relocation, I'm not too worried - yet. It would be nice if John would drop the list a note. Peter Trei
