MX problem inbound messages bounced

	To the world at large the MX record refers to a non-existant
	host.  DNS7.REGISTER.COM and DNS8.REGISTER.COM believe that
	DNS7.REGISTER.COM is the master.

	I looks like you need to get DNS7.REGISTER.COM configured
	as a secondary.  You will also need to keep the serial number
	space consistant.  i.e. abraham currently has a serial number
	that is less than those on dns7 and dns8.  If dns7 and dns8
	have been updated to fetch the zone contents from abraham
	they won't do it until the serial number is greater than
	1999060704.  I also should update your delegation.

	Mark
