It turns out that the mail problem is not at ss.org afaik but one hop before it, at a place called nte.com

Hi Peter. I'm seeing something very different to you.

Therefore point your mta transport map to ss.org directly [206.108.5.1] and your mail will arrive. I just did this with full logging and it works fine.

For me at least it'll just go straight to 206.108.5.1 (in a messaging sense, not a packet sense of course): zen:~$ host -t mx ss.org ss.org MX 1 lethe.ss.org zen:~$ host lethe.ss.org lethe.ss.org A 206.108.5.1

mail.ets.com is some sort of mx or hop on the way to ss.org from ??? I keep getting reminders that it still tries to send my mail, with ss.org timing out every time on the transfer.

Both mail.ets.com & mail.nte.com do not resolve for me: zen:~$ host mail.ets.com mail.ets.com does not exist, try again zen:~$ host mail.nte.com mail.nte.com does not exist, try again The domains do exist which is not surprising given the are both 3 letters :) Rob -- Robert Brockway B.Sc. email: robert-5LEc/6Zm6xCUd8a0hrldnti2O/JbrIOy at public.gmane.org, zzbrock at uqconnect.net Linux counter project ID #16440 (http://counter.li.org) "The earth is but one country and mankind its citizens" -Baha'u'llah -- The Toronto Linux Users Group.
