   Yes, sounds familiar long-time problem.
   To help its debugging I have created a new "make" target in the
     transports/smtp/
   subdirectory, namely:
	make getmxrr-test

   When created, that program does DNS lookups just the way as the smtp
   does (actually using same library function), thus it should tell what
   is going on:

	./getmxrr-test sovam.com
