1) XMail does cache MX records 2) You can use SmartDNSHosts to make XMail to use them instead of doing resolutions alone (and it still cache them) - Davide - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
