Hotmail servers are so bad that I know of list managers that will not even allow hotmail accounts to sign up.  These are all most likely related to the unreliability of those receiving servers.   The mail will probably still go through to one of the available servers and the error messages can likely be ignored.   Regards,   Howie ----- Original Message ----- From: William Vernon To: inFusion Support List Sent: Wednesday, October 27, 2004 11:35 PM Subject: [iMS] Connection timed out [msn.com] & [hotmail.com] Hi all,       I'm not sure if this really has anything to do with iMS or if we have been flagged by Hotmail and MSN for something, but we are continuously getting this socket error when trying to connect to ANY of their mail servers.   10/27/2004 05:51:44 PM [013] WARNING: SOCKET ERROR2: (Sock Connect) [10060] Connection timed out [hotmail.com] (mx1.hotmail.com) 10/27/2004 05:51:44 PM [017] WARNING: SOCKET ERROR2: (Sock Connect) [10060] Connection timed out [msn.com] (mx4.hotmail.com) 10/27/2004 05:51:45 PM [008] WARNING: SOCKET ERROR2: (Sock Connect) [10060] Connection timed out [msn.com] (mx3.hotmail.com) Could this be something in my DNS server?   Thanks, Bill   ---- William Vernon          Omega Design Studio, Inc.
