More info...

I queried the DNS server for MX entries. It has 4 entries. One of which is
172.*.*.26. *.104 does not have an MX entry. Also indiatimes.com or
gmail.com have no MX entries. This is from the DNSserver log.

19/06/06 19:02:00 INFO  dnsserver: Couldn't resolve MX records for domain
gmail.com.
19/06/06 19:02:00 ERROR dnsserver: Couldn't resolve IP address for host
gmail.com.

Similar lines are found for indiatimes.com. I believe this will be found for
any destination which doesn't have an MX entry in the DNS server. But how do
I overcome this limitation? I am not the DNS server admin. I cannot change
the entries obviously. I know I am asking you to solve a prob totally
unrelated to James. Am very sorry. The corresponding mailet log entries
follow.

Thanks guys. I would like to know what it means when an SMTP server returns
a response -1. It also says it could not connect to SMTP host. Does this
tell anything about the destination server?
