[IMail Forum] Imail and use of MX Records

[Jeff Pereira]

I had a problem last week where I couldn't send email to a particular domain.   I was coming up with a SEND ERROR 10054. It looked Imail was connecting, but being immediately disconnected.   Why didn't Imail just try one of their other mail servers which woould have worked because the workaround ( THANK YOU SCOTT) was to put an entry into my HOSTS file to force the mail to a different server?   Is it because it looked like it was connecting that it did not try one of the other servers ?   What event must take place for Imail to try to deliver to an alternate server as specified in a domains MX record ?   Thank you.   Jeff
