FYI: A net-wise individual pointed me to this URL which states that 31-Dec-2004 was a cutoff date for attbi.com. http://faq.comcast.net/faq/answer.jsp?name=17799&cat=Email&subcategory=1 -Jim P. On Tue, 2005-01-04 at 11:36 -0500, Jim Popovitch wrote:
Over the last few days I have seen numerous maillog errors wrt resolving MX records for comcast.net and attbi.com. Am I alone in this?
Yesterday: DSN: Host unknown (Name server: comcast.net.: no data known)
Today: DSN: Host unknown (Name server: attbi.com.: no data known)
Currently I can manually dig an mx record for comcast.net, but attbi.com still seems to be blank.
