Search Again: Re: Changing ISP''s From: Nicholas Orr Date: Monday, July 23, 2001 Time: 7:42:22 pm What I was hoping to do was reduce the down time for people who are collecting mail from the new server. They will not change any server details, as the name will stay the same, but the IP will be different. If I reduce the TTL for the mail server only, will this new IP address reach them faster after I've changed it than if I left it the same? I don't want people to complain about not being able to check mail because their DNS data still points to the now useless backup.
