Assuming you have a secondary mail server (lower priority MX record in the
DNS) it should catch the mail. Just change the IP address in the host
records on the Secondary to point to the new address. If you don't have a
secondary set one up now.

Hey there...
I was wondering what procedure other people go through when they have to
either modify their IP/DNS - to avoid loosing mail while the dns updates.
The company I will be doing this for, has a web based DNS provider, and they
do not have access to the TTL settings.
I posted this on IPSwitch's list, but with the SLOW speeds for delivery - I
have still not seen this one come through yet - so I apologize to those who
are subscribed to both lists and may get this twice.
Dustin
