after changing ISP and MX records, can't recieve Emails anymore
Hello friends.
We have recently changed our ISP in the office.
We have SBS 2003 with Exchange for our company's Emails.
the registrar, till now, used to point the DNS records to the old ISP (and the old ISP used to, i guess, forward the Emails to our office IP address).
Emails were working great with no issues for a few years.
Now that we had to change ISP and our IP address, we logged in to the registrar's control panel and changed the MX records, C names and all other DNS records to point to the new IP address.
we had to create an MX record (we created "mail.DomainName.com") and set it up with the new IP address.
we changed the IP on the router, and took care of the reverse DNS with the new ISP.
outgoing Emails are working fine (so it seems) but we are not getting ANY incoming Emails from outside.
NSlookup shows that mail.DomainName.com has the correct IP address associated with it.
changes were made a couple of days ago already, so should be propogated by now...
Any ideas ?
Thanks in advance !

thanks.
DNS was configured fine on registrar's end.
we ended up finding that propogation needed more time, and that our router had to be reconfigured from scrach- then it worked.
Thanks.
