VERIZON.NET MX preference = 0, mail exchanger = relay.VERIZON.NET
VERIZON.NET nameserver = ns1.bellatlantic.NET
VERIZON.NET nameserver = ns2.bellatlantic.NET
VERIZON.NET nameserver = bigguy.gte.NET
relay.VERIZON.NET internet address = 206.46.170.12
ns1.bellatlantic.NET internet address = 199.45.32.40
ns2.bellatlantic.NET internet address = 199.45.32.41
bigguy.gte.NET internet address = 206.124.64.1

I am running IIS 5 and Imail Server 6.x on the one and same "box".
