You must enter the dns lines in /etc/resolve.conf

ie:

nameserver 203.11.90.1
nameserver 203.11.90.240

If all is working you should be able to do a: ping mail.senet.com.au
and get many sucessful returns.

Oh, SEnet now have transeparent proxying so you don't need to put the
proxies in anyway :)

Cheers,
