I posted a few minutes ago that the comments on this subject cleared it all up for me, but now I've got a couple of more questions.
Seems like my posts are not showing up intermittently as well. In any event, my checklist has shrunk somewhat based on the comments made so far. It seems to me now that I could take two approaches. I could leave SIMS name unchanged locally, leave DNS unchanged on the old domain, set up the new domain with MX pointing to SIMS, and put a router entry equating <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>[EMAIL PROTECTED] Or I could change SIMS name to 'mail.newdomain.com'. Take the old domain MX record and point to A record/mail.newdomain.com. New domain MX and A records - mail.newdomain.com. Router entry <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>[EMAIL PROTECTED] Both would get the same result. If that's true, any comments on using one or the other?
