i'm getting the following failures trying to deliver mail for two
different domains.  they're both hosted at godaddy.com.  anyone has
seen this?

sending /net/dns 'XXXXX mx'
dns mx: XXXXX mx	10 mailstore1.secureserver.net
dns mx: XXXXX mx	0 smtp.secureserver.net
dns mx; got 2 entries
mxdial trying /net/net!smtp.secureserver.net!smtp
smtp timeout: connection to net!XXXXX timed out

sending /net/dns 'YYYYY mx'
dns mx: YYYYY mx	10 mailstore1.secureserver.net
dns mx: YYYYY mx	0 smtp.secureserver.net
dns mx; got 2 entries
mxdial trying /net/net!smtp.secureserver.net!smtp
smtp timeout: connection to net!YYYYY timed out

unfortunately, this is expected.

outbound mail is handled by upas/smtp, which does not drop any
breadcrumbs for itself to remember past connect failures.
also, since each email is handled by a seperate upas/smtp process,
there's no hope of communicating the failure.

there's nothing wrong with this approach per se, but
it is a bit annoying.
