: AW: AW: Permanent errors from transient DNS issues? Hi Jürgen, if the target (destination) is wrong surely it's its administrator problem, but if it is a problem with my servers (either James or all my nameservers or the ones I query) or a network problem isolating me, then I don't

Hi All, seriously, I disagree with how you expect DNS to work. A Domain has configured "n" Nameservers that are responsible for Name resolution. So I would expect James to use all of them in a loop fashion. If all Nameservers fail with "NXDOMAIN", or we cannot even determine, that there is no
