After you have edited your domain's MX record, you may ping the MX record to verify the status of your change as follows:
1. Go to your Windows Start button.
2. Select Run.
3. Type 'cmd' in the window.
4. Type 'ping smtp.greatmail.com'
where 'smtp.greatmail.com' is your domain's highest priority MX record. If the MX record has taken effect, you should see something like the following:
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
(C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp.
C:\Documents and Settings\Greatmail>ping smtp.greatmail.com
Pinging smtp.greatmail.com [69.28.204.71] with 32 bytes of data:
