Ok, it looks like its just a plain DNS problem.

Did you try doing a pull and a reboot as geoff suggested?
this will ensure you are running the latest ndb/dns resolver

if so, what happens if you try these, note the > is the prompt
printed by dnsquery:

	term% ndb/dnsquery
	> mgate.chello.at mx
	> mgate.chello.at.mx

here is what I get:

	felix% ndb/dnsquery
	> mgate.chello.at
	mgate.chello.at ip	213.46.255.2
	> mgate.chello.at mx
	!dns: resource does not exist

if you have trouble with dns, then check which dns server
you are using (cat /net/ndb), and maybe experiment with
ndb/dnsdebug (check the manual for details).
