Hi,

I tested it on exactly the same machine (it's a laptop that I brought back
and forth between home/office), with exactly the same configuration in
either case.
(which is the out-of-the-zip file config :-).
 
The only problem is that when it's in office network it takes a long time to
deliver (both to ncs.com.sg and to external domain such as hotmail), aobut
20 minutes per-email.
At home the same email is delivered instantly. Definitely it must be some
DNS resolution problem but I can't figure it out... 

(will xmail compile under MinGW32 ? See whether I can dig deeper and put
some test code in the DNS resolution process...).

What confuses me is that Xmail is saying:
        > MX records for domain "ncs.com.sg" not found, trying direct.
While using nslookup actually resolves the MX records.

Thanks David for releasing this software. It's really one of the best
open-source mail server there is, for windows platform.

cheers,
James
