DNS Retries Even if MX Record Does not Exist?????

[ta...@itmatrix.com]

Hi,

I am using JAMES v2.2. I am using DNS as delivery mode for my emails and 
my operating system is win 2000 Advance server.

My question is that when ever Remote Delivery matcher tries to send mail 
and it finds that there are no DNS entries for that particular domain 
(typo or non-existent domains), why does it retries the specified no of 
times, Why not does it bounces back the message to sender after first try, 
saying that the recipient domain does not exist.

Regards,

Taimur.

There are numerous temporary reasons why there may not be any DNS 
entries.  So it retries because when it retries, it may have entries.
