    All my dreams are shattered by sequence of disasters that stuck me in the last two days. 1. My XP machine at my work crashed badly. 2. I got an email virus. I don't know how? I never open any emails from any unknown people. :( 3. I don't see any reply emails for my posts to CP :( :( 4. My plan to be the weekly top poster failed. Work machine was not working for two days. :(( 5. To escape from all these tensions, I went to watch "Bad Company". Two of my favorite actors were in the movie Chris Rock and Anthony Hopkins. I felt asleep in the movie :(( Going to sleep now:(

You didn't understand :-) When *you* reply to my post, the CP scripts attempts to send you a mail notification using *my* email address as the from-address. But *because* *you* email server is *down*, it rejects the mail and the CP SMTP server bounces the mail back to the sender, this this case *me* get it now? p.s. The problem is NOT with your mail server, but for some reasons CP's DNS server cannot resolve your server's MX record :confused:

              I understand the mechanism but i missed the part when ypu said that you were getting bounced mails for the replies send to me. What does the mail header look like. What is the reason given?

The DNS system is dynamic, and if your ISPs mail server goes down for a time, the records may get purged until it's been back up for a while.
