The reason I'm asking is that an account I created at 15:19 is still not accepting mail. I was wanting to try a dig on the DNS server used by relay (ns1.force9.net has the DNS records - ns2.force9.net doesn't).
Edit: Wasn't it the DNS servers used by dialup?

I'd give it a while longer jelv but if it's the same tomorrow morning then give this thread a bump as I'd have expected it to be showing on both auth servers by then.

I've no idea if I'm honest although it could well be.

I think CSC are talking to Networks - can you see if a problem has been raised? (When I rang in he checked another account which had been created today and that was the same)

It was me, I checked with Bob and he said exactly the same to me as he said above

However looking at the caching servers they are not yet - but they are improving:
212.156.13.49, 212.159.13.50 & 212.159.6.10 look OK but 212.159.6.9 doesn't have any of the mx-postini.last.plus.net. records
Are there two more caching servers in the other London centre and if so what are their IPs?

C:\Documents and Settings\Bobby>nslookup -type=mx elvin2.plus.com 212.159.6.9
Server: ptn-cdns01.plus.net
Address: 212.159.6.9
Non-authoritative answer:
elvin2.plus.com MX preference = 10, mail exchanger = mx-postini.core.plus.net
elvin2.plus.com MX preference = 20, mail exchanger = mx-postini.last.plus.net
plus.com nameserver = ns2.force9.net
plus.com nameserver = ns1.force9.net
mx-postini.core.plus.net internet address = 64.18.4.14
mx-postini.core.plus.net internet address = 64.18.4.10
mx-postini.core.plus.net internet address = 64.18.4.11
mx-postini.core.plus.net internet address = 64.18.4.13
mx-postini.last.plus.net internet address = 64.18.4.14
mx-postini.last.plus.net internet address = 64.18.4.10
mx-postini.last.plus.net internet address = 64.18.4.11
mx-postini.last.plus.net internet address = 64.18.4.13
ns1.force9.net internet address = 195.166.128.16
ns2.force9.net internet address = 195.166.128.17
Not sure why there was that discrepancy earlier, I'll ask around tomorrow to see if anybody can think of why you'd see that...
