Davide, 
 
I have a interesting problem that has surfaced.
One particular domain that I send to fails because Xmail says it can't find
an MX record, so it tries an A record, it finds one and that server is not a
mail server (even though it responds on port 25).
So I get a bounce email with error 550, mail not permitted.
If I restart Xmail, and resend the same email (outlook 2003, resend option),
Xmail finds the MX record successfully and sends the email.
At this point I think I have fixed it with a simple restart of Xmail and
write it off to a glitch.
Some time later that day, I send an email to the same domain and get a
bounce email, same as before.
And yes if I restart Xmail, I can resend the email.
 
I am running Xmail 1.20 on Win 2k sp4.
I use the smartdnshost option in the server.tab pointing to a local dns
server that does the resolving.
The windows IP setting for dns is pointing to the same dns server.
If I do a nslookup for the mx record against the same dns server, I get the
MX record every time.
 
Davide, I'll send you directly and attachment with all the details and real
domains/IPs.
 
Thanks Rob :-)
