I think she mistyped the domain in her email to me (common occurrence
for her).

She is having DNS/email issues with an actual domain that has no MX, but
i'll have to wait for her input on what the actual domain spelling is.

Thanks again,

I'll be moving from the US to Japan by October 2007 and most of my possessions MUST BE SOLD, as it is too costly to ship them to the other side if the planet :)

So keep checking the KRM eBay Store between now and mid-late September and you might come up on some pretty nice bargains on all kinds of different stuff.
