another odd problem with reverse lookup's. we are able to send mail to
na.bestfoods.com [12.14.84.10]. They cannot send mail to us. They can do
an nslookup and get our mx record. Sendmail, on our end, I think is timing
out trying to reverse lookup their outbound mail server. They tell me the
server is 12.14.84.35. when i do an nslookup 12.14.84.35 i get nothing.
when i do a dig -x 12.14.84.35 it reports that att.net is authoritative for
their domain, and the PTR record is aliased? i think.
why is nslookup showing nothing
why is sendmail choking on an aliased PTR record? Should it be choking?
