I see what you are talking about. Mail.wbpr.com has 2 IP's. Strange....
Non-authoritative answer: wbpr.com MX preference = 100, mail exchanger = mail.wbpr.com wbpr.com nameserver = nameserver.coqui.net wbpr.com nameserver = nameserver.coqui.com mail.wbpr.com internet address = 196.42.23.4 mail.wbpr.com internet address = 64.213.243.212 nameserver.coqui.net internet address = 196.28.61.36 nameserver.coqui.com internet address = 196.28.61.66 -----Original Message----- From: Lynne July [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, April 15, 2002 12:58 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: DNS for wbpr.com Our client, wbpr.com, appears to have issues with their DNS records. They have 2 MX records with the same preference, and one of the boxes (64.213.243.212) does not respond. Of course, *my* DNS server tries to connect to that one first, resulting in the dreaded "Host Unreachable" error. The 2nd IP is never attempted. If I hard code the good IP (196.42.23.4) in the IMS, magically the mail delivers. Of course, the customer claims no one else on earth is having problems sending them mail. Obviously it's a DNS issue - but is it *my* DNS server's fault that it never looks for the 2nd IP address, or is it their problem? (dnsstuff.com couldn't even connect to their mail server, so I'm voting for it's their problem.) Many thanks.
