Hello again John,
Well there are two places to put a name, not sure which one should
be what so I tried all the combinations I could think of. I filled in
one name only and not the other and then the other and not the first
one, then both. I think that may be what the problem is but I don't
know for sure because the people at tjns never reply to my email.
Their web page has said new domain names will be available next week
for about two months now. The DNS does work when I find out my
external IP address and go and update it manuallyfrom the tjns web
page. Another question, If I set a mx record doesn't it also have to
change whenever my IP address changes? That being the case should I
just put my domain name for the mx record rather than the ip address?
Thanks for the help. Your product is definately the best out there.
