We're having a problem sending mail to a particular domain (pcnet-inc.com)
because sendmail is telling us that their mail exchanger is not a known
host. However, note the following results on the machine that's trying to
sendmail.
miro: {78} nslookup -type=mx pcnet-inc.com
Server: miro.bestweb.net
Address: 208.197.0.15
Non-authoritative answer:
pcnet-inc.com preference = 0, mail exchanger = viewtek_comm1.pcnet-inc.com
Authoritative answers can be found from:
pcnet-inc.com nameserver = NS.MCI.NET
pcnet-inc.com nameserver = GABRIEL.pcnet-inc.com
viewtek_comm1.pcnet-inc.com internet address = 206.98.180.168
NS.MCI.NET internet address = 204.70.128.1
GABRIEL.pcnet-inc.com internet address = 206.98.180.132
miro: {79} nslookup viewtek_comm1.pcnet-inc.com
Server: miro.bestweb.net
Address: 208.197.0.15
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: viewtek_comm1.pcnet-inc.com
Address: 206.98.180.168
miro: {80} ping viewtek_comm1.pcnet-inc.com
ping: unknown host viewtek_comm1.pcnet-inc.com
miro: {81} uname -a
FreeBSD miro.bestweb.net 3.0-970209-SNAP FreeBSD 3.0-970209-SNAP #0: Sun Apr 13

Anyone have thoughts on this one? I'm a bit baffled...
