Re: [SLE] MX records & how to fetch / resubmit to the original mail server
hi ronald,

what do you mean by "fetch / resubmit" ???
if one mail is sent out, and it can not reac the destination, it is returned
to the sender. this can happen in a few hours, but can take serveral days also.
changing a dns record takes usually 24-48 hours to propagate over the net.
if you are lucky, some of the mails will reach the original server, but only
if they are still underway to get delivered _and_ there will be again a
request to a dns that knows about the new mx .....
otherwise : no go, i would say .....

greets,

chris
