This setup is currently in a community run colo facility. I am not sure they provide any sort of mail hosts for people to use. All the IPs are for dedicated machines much like a typical colo facility so I have no idea where I would even need to look. When I asked I was told that PTR records wouldn't be available but that they would look into it. This leaves me kind of high and dry. I either need to find a third party smart hosting solution, or just plow forward with out PTRs and hope for the best =/ > > Check that scenario first. > > Bill > > > > -- > ## List details at http://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users > ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ > ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/ > -- ## List details at http://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
