Dear responders,
thanks to all for you suggestions. I may be permitted to give you some
details about my environment here.
The server I am using has come with pre-loaded Plesk 7.5. then I didn't
have any such problem like missing MX etc.
As the particular version of plesk didn't allow using cyrus I
uninstalled the plek from my system and now I am facing all this problem.
So could some one kindly suggest any such web based tool to manage my
own DNS etc ?
thanks for knowledge sharing.
