I get the following results from my DNS's metcredit.com MX 20 mail2.tac.net metcredit.com MX 10 mcant.metcredit.com metcredit.com MX 15 mail.tac.net
whitehorsetravel.com MX 1 216.126.98.58 Compare to your own nslookup In the imail Box, just to make sure. whiteshsorsetravel.com MX is weird. Looks like an MXeasy record type. try point it to an A record instead to a IP address. Luis Arango ----- Original Message ----- From: "Trent M.
