Phew doing dns setup via robots etc seems much more tricky than just doing everything yourself manually....

Well in any case my isp has some sort of dns registration robot that has generated some sort of primary zone file that I guess points to my IP.
I am not too clear on what domain name should appear in the line about "start of authority" in this file and how on earth it is ever going to know what I called my domain name anyway, but I will just press on regardless and check that file you mentioned catdude to see if mail will work...and i will do a dns report too
