This is probably because hub went down (disk failure). Quite why your ISP's mail server didn't try to deliver it to builder instead as the MX records suggest is another matter. Perhaps they have a stale MX record cached somewhere. Is this problem still happening? If so, I suggest you contact your ISP's postmaster to find out why it isn't working, there's not much anyone here can do. -- Ben Smithurst / ben@scientia.demon.co.uk / PGP: 0x99392F7D To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
