(from previous post) optusnet.com.au. 37147 IN A 211.29.132.105 But the rev dns is : C:\>dig -x 211.29.132.105 ; <<>> DiG 9.2.3 <<>> -x 211.29.132.105 ;; global options: printcmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 41 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 2, ADDITIONAL: 2 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;105.132.29.211.in-addr.arpa.

So I agree with you, the www.optusnet.com.au is *NOT* the "A" record. But there is an "A" record that matches the domain where you would usually see the "MX" In this case there are both A & MX for "optusnet.com.au" Rob :-) _________________________________________________ Note To Self: Remember to put something witty here later... -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Davide Libenzi Sent: Tuesday, April 17, 2007 9:53 AM To: xmail@xmailserver.org Subject: [xmail] Re: 1.25-pre06 ...
