Thanks for your replies; I think this will do the trick. I am just holding off
on testing it out until next weekend during off-peak times, it is a heavy use
email site. Is it necessary to place the IP within brackets? Someone else had
told me it was necessary before my posting of the initial question and I
noticed your replies also placed the IP within brackets as well. Same for the
mxrecord.domain.com, is the (mxrecord.xx) portion also necessary when I make
the change?

Thanks again for your help and insight!
David
