The following should be reported when doing a nslookup on your NT DNS Server
c:\> nslookup
>ls -d yourdomain.com
yourdomain.com. MX 10 mailhost.yourdomain.com
mailhost A 123.456.789.1
www A 123.456.789.1
yourdomain.com. A 123.456.789.1
Your mailer may be referenced via
mail.yourdomain.com
Your website should be able to referenced via
www.yourdomain.com
and yourdomain.com (with no www)
They all run from the same IP address.
I'm not an expert but hopefully that helps.
