I am able to write from my main email address just because of that. If anything, I am even more puzzled than I was yesterday. I do have the feeling, after the exchange we had yesterday, that the DNS servers my VPS provider told me to use had some problem now fixed, but nothing more. Of course, the idea that I don't know for sure what happened and it may happen again doesn't make me happy, but I honestly wouldn't know what/where to investigate at this point. Further comments are welcome. Thanks to all who helped, Marco _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
