I have no trouble when adding new hosts to my departmental domain, chem.wayne.edu, with the new address records being propagted to the rest of the net. However, when I try to add MX records, they don't get get beyond the name servers within the department. Eg: I add: pharm.wayne.edu. IN MX fourcroy.chem.wayne.edu. dirac IN A 141.217.26.27 and all of the name servers within the chem.wayne.edu domain know about the MX for the pharm.wayne.edu domain (which is not on the internet). However, name servers outside of our domain only receive the entry for dirac (dirac.chem.wayne.edu). Why won't the MX records go beyond our domain? Thanks in advance. Ron Wilson, rlw@chem.wayne.edu
