I've scoured the the Fastmail.fm FAQ (as well as these forums) and can't find an answer to my problem. VersaMail will allow me to receive mail on my Palm, but it won't let me send. I've tried three...

Re: Summarizing?

That was my own ignorance talking, I'm afraid. ;) I was initially using the terms DNS and MX interchangeably...not realizing that it was possible to move one without the other. I've always had a...

And isn't it the case that 4 NS records are better than 2? ZoneEdit indicates 99.9% uptime on two servers, which is fine for my needs. But had I known about this earlier I might have gone with...

That's my understanding, too, Jeff. In any case, my new namecheap-registered domain e-mail is now forwarding to both my FM Full account and my GMail back-up, so I'm a happy camper.

Why is NameCheap's e-mail forwarding "crap"?

I know this may appear to be "off-topic" for this particular forum, but bear with me for a sec.

I've seen (buried in other threads here) several references to NameCheap's e-mail forwarding feature...
