RE: [cobalt-users] Domain working, mail not....

Maybe the entries for these domains are hard coded in the old ISP's DNS server
If this is the case are your clients are connecting to the old ISP they 
would never reach the sites unless these
records were removed

do an nslookup on the old ISP's DNS servers are make sure that the  are not 
authoritive for the domains
