Hi
I'm having a problem resolving the MX record for one domain name. I
tested several others and they worked. This is the only domain name I
found a problem with. I did a dig on another machine and it works.

I'm using bind bind-9.2.5-1 on 2.6.11-1.27_FC3 #1 on machine 1. I've been
having this problem for a couple days. This came to pass because people
can not send emails to this domain. I can ping it and do a dig on the
domain, but if I try to do a dig on the domain name's MX I don't get any
answers. Any ideas?
thanks
Dean
