the DNS values have properly propogated (that the right term?)

After having horrendous email problems and lots of red "FAILS" showing up under the dnsreport i changed my DNS values (i had a missing "." from my MX value....doh!)

Now having redone the dnsreport.com checks some 6 hours later it looks much healthier, red has turned to yellow

would you say this is a clean bill of health for the email? http://www.dnsreport.com/tools/mail.ch?domain=3thefunk.com

Although according to the reports the email should be ok now but it still fails when sending a message to the domain.

Does that dnsreport give any indication when other people will be able to see the changes?

If you are talking about 3thefunk.com it looks good except for a couple of refresh rates which shouldn't affect the function. Propagation time can vary, often depending on your users internet service provider.

There's no way for dnsreports to know how long it takes for other people. It varies from people to people, isp to isp, location to location. I think you get the idea.
