Sorry for the double-post. I sent the first one and spent some time doing
refreshes and it wouldn't show up. Finally decided it was "lost" so I
resent it.
Good Idxea about DynDNS's Backup MX service.

Not sure why you re-posted, but I would suggest looking at DynDNS's
MailHop Backup MX service to use as your single Backup MX service and
set your Exchange server as the highest priority mail server and
DynDNS's backup service as the secondary mail server. Since you are
already apparently using their service. It's $29.95/year. Pretty
cheap.

Cheers,

=============================
Our Director just told me that he isn't getting all his emails (he's been
out of town for 4 days and is checking them today). He checked our ISP's
webmail (they hosted our email for the last year - I switched us over to
Exchange about 2 weeks ago), and saw over 100 emails there. I did a
quick
check of the ISP's webmail on my account - it's empty.

Our Exchange has an MX record listed with the highest priority; I've got
teh
4 mail servers for the ISP listed with lower priorities so they can act
as a
backup (I never communicated to the ISP that we are now on Exchange.)

Any ideas on what happened and why?
