[time-nuts] Lady Heather Ver 5 Problem

[Orin Eman]

The explanation is rather difficult to parse.  It seems it's indicating
that an MX record was found (somewhere you could send email) but no A
record (a server you could connect to).

As John says, probably a temporary problem.

Orin; never seen that one before.
