He wants to know if it still works, that means do an immediate force 
transfer, so Marks suggestion is the best, however, I only differ to Mark 
in that I suggest to backup your zone files before you delete them :)

Though we have done many 'majors' and never had a problem, if theres going

 	--- Usenet policy, and why I might ignore you ---
1/ GoogleGroups are UDP'd on my nntp server. If you use them, don't
    waste your time or energy replying to me.

2/ If only cleanfeed filtered out trolls as well as spam, usenet would be
    a nicer place.
