Also, the first and the third are the same IP.This could be a factor if the server sending you mail has a problem looking up MX records and checking mail servers. Who knows, maybe some mail servers only check 3 MX records and if your network isn't reachable (i.e., it doesn't change the fourth) you mail will bounce).Your servers are probably up all the time, but maybe their network can't reach yours all the time? I'd remove the extra MX record pointing to the same server and cross your fingers.DavidDavid Dantowitz -- Dantowitz Consulting & Research, Inc.
