Group Mail's Email Inspector Issue

Hey,

When trying to use the email inspector in Group Mail I always get a time our (10060) when I do a DNS test even though I know the addresses are fine.

I've gone into my router and forwarded port 53 to my machine and switched off my firewall. Also extended the timeout allowance and no help.

Any ideas? Cheers.

Check the DNS settings on your machine and make sure you can resolve the domain name from a command line "nslookup" command.
If you can then your DNS is setup correctly, this would be the first issue to check.
If DNS is resolving correctly, then check the application settings, there is a DNS timeout option, the default should be 5 seconds, if set to this, try increasing it.  Be carefull not to set it too high, this could causing delays in your applications for every email making the entire application next to useless.
