Re: Curiosity about smtp.comcast.net
A dns lookup for smtp.comcast.net produces:
;; QUESTION SECTION:
;smtp.comcast.net. IN A
;; ANSWER SECTION:
smtp.comcast.net. 94 IN A 216.148.227.147
smtp.comcast.net. 94 IN A 63.240.77.77
smtp.comcast.net. 94 IN A 204.127.192.17
smtp.comcast.net. 94 IN A 204.127.200.17
smtp.comcast.net. 94 IN A 204.127.225.17
smtp.comcast.net. 94 IN A 206.18.177.17
IP address 63.240.77.77 has no PTR record, IP addresses 204.127.225.17 and 206.18.177.17 have PTR records for almailhost.ops.asp.att.net, and the others have PTR records pointing to smtp.comcast.net. Which actual server you would use would depend on server load and possibly also your IP address.
