Glenn Anderson, author of the freeware program EIMS, did respond to my query and made it clear the problem is unlikely to be EIMS. Which leaves QDNS v1.1.2 as the most likely culprit -- but I've received nothing from Men and Mice on this either here on the list or directly. Hey Men and Mice, is there any reason to think this problem is addressed in the new beta version? And does it take care of the -120 subdirectory not found error when getting secondaries? > Date: Sat, 12 Jul 1997 13:08:04 +1200 > From: Glenn Anderson <glenn@qualcomm.co.nz> > Subject: Re: Problems with MX record caching in EIMS? > > >It appears either EIMS or QuickDNS is caching a temporary error and > >assuming ATT is down for the count.
