    Mail servers look up...

    C:\Documents and Settings\Dave>nslookup
    *** Can't find server name for address 192.168.1.1: Non-existent domain
    *** Default servers are not available
    Default Server: UnKnown
    Address: 192.168.1.1

    > set type=mx
    > mail.com
    Server: UnKnown
    Address: 192.168.1.1

    Non-authoritative answer:
    mail.com MX preference = 15, mail exchanger = mailin-04.mx.aol.com
    mail.com MX preference = 15, mail exchanger = mailin-03.mx.aol.com
    mail.com MX preference = 15, mail exchanger = mailin-01.mx.aol.com
    mail.com MX preference = 15, mail exchanger = mailin-02.mx.aol.com

    mailin-02.mx.aol.com internet address = 205.188.103.1
    mailin-02.mx.aol.com internet address = 205.188.155.110
