A week or so ago I received an email from sodetel asking all users to change the settings in their email client from bow.sodetel.net.lb to pop.sodete.net.lb

I replied to the mail saying that if they want to change the server name to "pop", why dont they just add a DNS alias "bow" that would point to the new server "pop" instead of asking all the users to reconfigure their mail client.

What if they want 'bow' to eventually refer to something other than the pop3 server ? Creating a 'bow' alias to point to 'pop' would prevent them from using the name for something else.
