Heres one that I bet no one can answer . . .
Take a look at the logs below .. I cannot for the life of me send any
messages to 'vikingelectric.com' from one paticular machine - all the
others work just fine. YET, I can ping it and query MX tags just fine
without a problem:

I'm completely clueless. I have rebooted the box (against my best
judgement), I have switched domain servers (via resolv.conf) - I have
tried everything I could think of.
Perhaps it has to do with it being Friday the 13th.
