msn.com MX records funky.. primary going up and down, second staying down,
third seems reliable.

Actually, http://www.DNSstuff.com/tools/lookup.ch?name=msn.com&type=MX shows that MSN has 4 MX records. http://www.DNSreport.com/tools/mail.ch?domain=msn.com shows that they have a total of 10 different IPs between the 4. However, all of them have the same preference value, so there are no primaries or secondaries/backups. They are all primaries.


Time to update the HOSTS files boys..

Why? There should be no need in this case.


Mail server mx3.hotmail.com [65.54.254.140] answers on port 25..

Seems to be working. ^^

Using the Mail Test tool at http://www.DNSreport.com right now shows that 8 of the 10 mailservers for msn.com are up and running right now.


So mail to msn.com mail be slowed down a bit, but delivery certainly should be possible.
