Re: DNS Lookups

Thanks to Aaron and Scott - it seems that PHP has the routines I need (now
that I understand _what_ I need!) - but they are not part of the version
supported on Windows - which means I have to use the PEAR functions instead
and that is too much work for today since I have yet to install/use PEAR.

I'll see how I get on with Aaron's Java code for now.

Given Scott's explanation, I don't quite understand why gethost... xxx.xxx
fails, but gethost... mail.xxx.xxx succeeds - but perhaps I shouldn't worry.
