Yeah but it never does :)

During the week it normally takes under 24 hours (for me) and at the weekend about 3 days ugh.

Has anyone got experience with this service?

In particular, does anyone know what their bound of one million requests means? Is every request to my webserver a request to the DNS server?

You mean your web host doesn't allow you access to your own MX records? Jeepers, I thought you even had your own dedicated server??

Haha I run a couple of DNS servers, I just set up a zoneedit account ages ago and couldn't be bothered transferring the DNS somewhere else and taking the sites down for a few days.

Zoneedit isn't just for MX records Laugh

Why not?

Erm also nameservers are usually used in pairs Crazy

What are you banging on about? You could have a first, second, third and fourth DNS server if you wished! I've got a primary secondary and a third one running for my domains.

And why on earth would you want to have a couple? One DNS servers can handle a million DNS entries. Why would you want to set up a "couple"?

You seem confused. You keep contradicting yourself. Anyway don't lose sleep about my dns servers.

Time to stop responding. Bye Tongue

Why are you avoiding answering my question. "I seem confused". No, not at all. I just simply don't understand why any one individual would have "a couple" os DNS servers. The idea is absolutely absurd.

Please explain yourself.

If you're going to do something like that the best bet you have is to download SquirrelMail from ScoureForge. It's open source and it's supa-dupa fast.

(Apolagies to GT for posting this link. Hope you don't loose too many customers) :-)

Funny how you avoid my question regarding your logic of DNS?

Well not really considering all that does is read mail from another server.

What I have installed at the url above _IS_ a POP3/IMAP/SMTP server and not just a client.

"Squirrel Mail" is just a client like all the scripts at hotscripts.com - not what I want.

Hmm. Haven't you got a mail server already on your linux box? What's so special about that?

I thought you had your MX records changed so that you handle all your wiredon.net mail 'in-house'. That's what we're doing here at the moment. Works well.

Why are you using a Windows box though? Why not use a more reliable and faster linux services?

And why not answer my DNS question?

Go and register a domain name, you'll find you need to specify ns1 and ns2 at least.

Im shocked that people don't know that.

You don't *have* to at all. It is advised to have more than one DNS server with your zone information.

I've actually got three.

But I still don't think you grasp this DNS business at all. Saying that you need "a couple" of different DNS machines is compeltly innacurrate.

Read up on the RFC:

When did I ever say you needed two machines?

Wil, you are being quite rude and infact you have misunderstood most of what I've said.


I never said you need two _machines_

You _do_ need 2 nameservers to register a domain properly.


I have respect for QooQ and my reply (which was to him btwSly) wasn't even making him look like a fool, so just get off my case.

<BODY>Yeah it is really cool. That's why I love all Deerfield products. I like
how someone can set up Mdaemon in about 5 minutes, and allow people to have free
email, and they can also access it from pop email clients. The fact that they
made WorldClient come with templates and cgi is even better and I like the way
it runs its cgi on it's own little server. One thing I haven't been able to do
is make all emails that are to unknown users go to my main postmaster. Have you
looked at the remote client too. It's just like the main program except you can
connect from anywhere. Have you or are you planning on registering it?&nbsp;
Registered or not, it is still a cool program to fool with. Oh, the instant
multiple language switch is the coolest IMHO. <BR></BODY></HTML>

<BODY>Have you also noticed in this folder MDaemon\WorldClient\HTML
<BR>WCWatchInstall.exe? You can offer it as a download and people can enter
their info and it can run in the system tray and keeps a check every 5 minutes
or so and you can click the text and it takes you right to your worldclient
setup. I probably didn't explain well but install it and you'll see. Really
cool.&nbsp; Or you can go to the Options screen and click WC watch and it
already has a download setup.<BR></BODY></HTML>

Yeah Im having a few issues with it.

Firstly I can't get the thing on port 3002 to work, it just hangs. 3000 and 3001 work though.

Also I set up hothosts.net as a secondary domain but I can't figure out how it works. I can send emails from the hothosts.com accounts but nothing appears when I send to those accounts even though the SMTP/Routing tabs show the email has been processed. Also I get some emails for hothosts.net in my perlmad account. lol

Yeah I've seen that Watch program - pretty cool.

I'll take a look and see if I can see how to send unknowns to the postmaster - Im also trying to find out how to get rid of MDaemon v5.1.0 (or whatever) in the email headers :)

You connect to port 3002 by going into MDaemon\App and clicking Mdconfig.exe. Lets you change config settings on the road.

Probably something with registering. I looked for the WorldClient.cgi and I think it uses the dll and exe to create it. I have no idea how it would work with multiple domains. Never tried. It's probably some settings not set properly for the other one. For the unknown mail, I found if you go into Primary Domain config, it gives an option to send the mail to the postmaster, but it doesn't work, and it sends it back to the person. There is also the cool setting that makes the client check if the user exists first and if not a prompt comes up. I think you have to click "Place message in bad directory".

Yeah its compiled into the DLL - I was searching too :)

Trying to click mdconfig.exe gives a winsock error - connection refused (127.0.0.1)
