Meh - call me a troll.  I'm posting here (personally, not as part of work) as 
a long-time SpamAssassin and mail server user/administrator and have no need 
to prove anything about my work systems.

Yes - that's one of my personal domains, not the work one. Yes the TTL's are 
short because I recently reorganised my DNS server and added some new slaves.  
I just haven't got around to changing the TTL's.  TTL's are fixed now, along 
with the bum-steer regarding the address I got from the guys handling my 
secondary MX.  Grrr.

Thanks for the heads up.

Cheers,

James
