Hello Daniel,
Thanks for the reply. We are currently co-located at Cinternet, they take care of
all of our names server stuff. I was unaware that they had the priority 10 and 15 MX
is going to them, but the priority 5 is going to our server.
The error I gave was from MS Outlook 2000. Didn't think it would be of much help,
but wanted to pass it along in case.
As for the 'Control Access' I have not done anything with it forever! I think I
actually had this problem all along if I was not using the satelite connection via
DirecPC. But now that I have quit DirecPC it is a REAL problem.
I just find it confusing that it works when using DirecPC when DirecPC is only one
way and that is in receiving information.
I just tried setting it SMTP to Relay ALL Mail and stopped and restarted the
service. The problem still exists. Could the CNAME and A Record problems possibly
cuase this?
Thanks,
Grant Griffith
