Of course, I know that. I just mentioned Africa because, in many countries in Africa, it is simply impossible to get a PTR record. That's a fact, there are many reasons behind.
That's because one of their leader's widows has 10 million PTRs they can't get to without your help and are more than willing to give you 15% of them if you would just deposit... I think the answer to not having rDNS in such an endemic way is to arrange to have your email delivered by a host which does like hotmail or whatever or pay someone to accept your non-rDNS connections as a special case and forward it along. Put another way, I don't know much chaos we should accomodate when solutions really aren't very difficult. -- -Barry Shein Software Tool & Die | bzs () TheWorld com | http://www.TheWorld.com Purveyors to the Trade | Voice: 617-739-0202 | Login: 617-739-WRLD The World | Public Access Internet | Since 1989 *oo*
