Hi Mark,

In \iMS\MXCache.bak there's a bunch of entries that look like this, in the format of....

domain=mailserver|date record inserted

An example of one of our cache records...

bgea.org=mailgw.bgea.org|04222008161530

Does anyone know how long this cache lasts? Is it refreshed on any basis? Is there any mechanism to control how long these records last before they are refreshed?

I recollect discussing this with Howie way back when it was implemented and I thought the timeout for MX records was the TTL of the DNS lookup that gathered the information. That doesn't quite fit with the info you typed above as there is no TTL info and the dates are definitely in the past, as in created date (I just took a look in our equivalent file) so I am now puzzled.

> I know I can refresh the entire cache by deleting the MXCache file and restarting POST, but I'm more interested in making sure the cache doesn't refresh for a certain time while I do some testing.

Change all the dates to the future?
