What do you mean that it doesn't recognize your email servers? What client
are you using to talk to them?

Once you connect try a couple of things from the command line[0]
host PLUG.phoenix.az.us
If that works:
ping -c5 PLUG.phoenix.az.us
If the first doesn't work:
ping -c5 206.169.48.234
The same thing for traceroute, if the host command doesn't work use the
name, otherwise use the IP address. We should only need the traceroute
output if the ping doesn't work.
traceroute PLUG.phoenix.az.us
[0] There are also GUI clients, but I don't know what they are.
ciao,
