Hi Nick- thanks for the response. my nslookup does work and i don't get the "peer name unknown". though i do get a syntax error when i do the "mail from:<me@mydomain.com>" command. MCI created a pointer to the IP that my mail server is supposedly originating from. So I'm not getting the AOL...

my router is managed by mci. the ip is registered to uunet, which i think is an mci parnter (?). i have a dual nic server that is my mail server, so maybe it's originating from the wrong interface?

i have a managed router by mci and there's no firewall. i'm not exactly sure what a smarthost is or how to tell if we are using one. thanks.

thanks llevon- i don't use any spam or mail services other than norton. here's the ip: 208.251.110.195 it shows the owner as UUnet. Isn't UUnet partners with MCI? MCI is my ISP.

anyone know how to tell where my header IP is coming from?

hello- when I send mail from my exchange the source IP in the header is a different IP than my mail server's public IP. I can ping my mail server's DNS name and also public IP address and get a proper response. So I'm wondering where the source IP address is coming from on the header. thanks...

Just got a response from MCI. My mail server is resolving to a different IP- not sure why. He went ahead and added a PTR record for that IP. When I PING my mail server's dns name it gives the correct IP. So why is my connection from my mail server coming from a different IP?

Hi Nick- yes, it shows a PASS.

MCI created the reverse DNS PTR records for my domain over a week ago, but I'm still getting the same problem. I assume they created a record for my MX record- is that correct?

I just used GetDataBack. I recovered about 50% of a deleted and recreated user profile. My buddy was happy enough with what i recovered.

thanks. which test did you do?

i booted the server with both cards installed, but the drives attached to the original card. then i shut it down and attached the drives to the new card and it booted up just fine. thanks poppaman and technome.

I'm getting the aol delivery error when people send mail from my domain to aol. This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification. THIS IS A WARNING MESSAGE ONLY. YOU DO NOT NEED TO RESEND YOUR MESSAGE. Delivery to the following recipients has been delayed. xxx@aol.com...

thanks technome- i just tried installing the driver via a repair, no luck. again it gets to the windows server splash screen for a few seconds, then gives a quick blue screen, then reboots. i noticed that when it lists the scsi devices it doesn't list the scsi card (which is id 7).

i replaced an Adaptec 2940 and put in an Adaptec 29160. when i booted it up it gave me the "insufficient termination detected on the .... connector" the "..." is off the screen so i can't tell if it says "LVD/SE" or just "SE". I assume it's "SE" as I have an HP tape drive attached to the 50 pin...
