hey, hey, Hey, HEY!!! Look before you start throwing insults! There's no call for this when checking out his statement is so easy. Lookie here: $ /usr/sbin/nslookup Default Server: ipinc.ipinc.net Address: 205.139.102.1 > mail.chartercom.com Server: ipinc.ipinc.net Address: 205.139.102.1 Non-authoritative answer: Name: mail.chartercom.com Address: 24.217.29.16 > 24.217.29.16 Server: ipinc.ipinc.net Address: 205.139.102.1 Name: mail.chartercom.com Address: 24.217.29.16 > exit $ Seems to be have both forward and reverse lookup records properly operating from here. Maybe you better consider the possibility that the ISP _is_ right, and "the-beach" _is_ crazy. Before throwing any more bottles can we get some accountability here? Like perhaps some more details before flying off the handle? Let's see some names and IP numbers please!!!!
