% nslookup

aunet.org       preference = 100, mail exchanger = smtp-relay.pbi.net
smtp-relay.pbi.net      internet address = 206.13.28.30

Non-authoritative answer:
lists.linux-india.org   preference = 10, mail exchanger =
mail.lists.linux-india.org

Authoritative answers can be found from:
lists.linux-india.org   nameserver = ns.indialinks.com
lists.linux-india.org   nameserver = ns2.indialinks.com
mail.lists.linux-india.org      internet address = 216.103.113.202
ns.indialinks.com       internet address = 209.182.54.65
ns2.indialinks.com      internet address = 209.182.49.40


Maybe that is the problem.  aunet.org has a secondary MX server
(smtp-relay.pbi.net).  I think if lists.linux-india.org had a secondary
backup MX server (preferrably within India) that is more reliable than my
own machine then the problem should be solved.

Ideas?
