Been getting this for weeks. E-mailed you on Sat, 19 Jul 2008 02:52:12 -0500 regarding this, but I did not receive any response.

You have a DNS problem somewhere. I can resolve it from my home laptop:

reed@jarodplus:~$ host robert.accettura.com
robert.accettura.com has address 64.207.212.2
robert.accettura.com mail is handled by 999 mx3.robert.accettura.com.
robert.accettura.com mail is handled by 999 mx4.robert.accettura.com.
robert.accettura.com mail is handled by 1 mail.robert.accettura.com.
robert.accettura.com mail is handled by 2 smtp.robert.accettura.com.

Until fixed, blog has been pulled from planet.

Strange..  I'm not seeing it anywhere.  Can you tell what DNS server it's trying to query?  There's 6 DNS servers in 4 data centers.  2 in a primary DC, 1 off-site from the same provider... than 3 secondary servers for the sake of redundancy in various data centers.  It's hard to believe all that failed.

Think a DNS server got out of sync... can you check this from mradm02?  Testing against all the dns hosts it seems fine.

I think I tracked this down... I'll uncomment since I'm making a round of changes.
