Hi,
I am getting the message "Your MX does not appear to have working RDNS" when I click the button - however, I've tested from an external connection and it seems to work:
;; QUESTION SECTION:
;jamesleavers.co.uk. IN MX
;; ANSWER SECTION:
jamesleavers.co.uk. 7200 IN MX 0 v6-mx.jamesleavers.co.uk.
;; QUESTION SECTION:
;v6-mx.jamesleavers.co.uk. IN AAAA
;; ANSWER SECTION:
v6-mx.jamesleavers.co.uk. 7200 IN AAAA 2001:470:906a:1:20c:29ff:fec8:b4f
;; QUESTION SECTION:
;f.4.b.0.8.c.e.f.f.f.9.2.c.0.2.0.1.0.0.0.a.6.0.9.0.7.4.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa. IN PTR
;; ANSWER SECTION:
f.4.b.0.8.c.e.f.f.f.9.2.c.0.2.0.1.0.0.0.a.6.0.9.0.7.4.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa. 259200 IN PTR v6-mx.jamesleavers.co.uk.
I have also run the RIPE delegation checker (http://www.db.ripe.net/cgi-bin/delcheck/delcheck2.cgi) for a.6.0.9.0.7.4.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa which is able to retrieve the PTR records for my nameserver addresses.
So have I missed something here? What is the test trying to find?
Something odd with the caching NS. I do a dig +trace on your IPv6 address and it works, but without the +trace it fails.
However using "host" + your IPv6 address works.
Right now the test uses dig output, so we're looking into the caching NS issue.
Thanks! It may not be relevant, but the AAAA record for v6-mx was changed 3-4 days ago. However, that was after I'd already experienced the error.

Hi,
Did you get any further with this in the end?
Thanks!

Yes, please retest, the issue with the caching NS should be fixed now.
