Hi Allie,

On Wednesday, October 16, 2002, 11:43 AM, you mentioned about "ATT Broadband 
connections problems":

I see.  This would be equivalent to me using qmail or Postfix in Linux as
my mail server (both for SMTP and POP3).  I can see where Mercury would be
advantageous for sending mail in Windows.  I will check Mercury out, as I
have questions regarding DNS records, if, or how, it resolves MX records
before it sends, if it does, etc.  Probably uses the ISPs DNS for this if
it checks.   Interesting.
