Hi Ingo,

Thank you for your understanding.
The domain situation is lingering a bit too long due to reliability issues with my current provider.
To preserve listing, Please update as follows.

Regards,
Kihaguru

Apart from the HTTP issues reported earlier, i see issues with your SMTP
configuration as well:

   $ date
  Sat Jan  6 15:21:00 CET 2024
   $ host -t any pqscript.com
  Host pqscript.com not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)

This is not good because a domain must have at least SOA and MX records
to be usable for SMTP.

   $ host -t soa ifinax.net
  ifinax.net has SOA record ns1.safaricombusiness.co.ke. \
  EnterpriseISPSystems.Safaricom.co.ke. 2023121202 3600 1800 1209600 86400
   $ host -t mx ifinax.net ns1.safaricombusiness.co.ke
  Using domain server:
  Name: ns1.safaricombusiness.co.ke
  Address: 41.203.208.129#53
  Aliases:

  ifinax.net mail is handled by 0 rat-03.safaricombusiness.co.ke.
  ifinax.net mail is handled by 0 rat-04.safaricombusiness.co.ke.
  ifinax.net mail is handled by 0 rat-01.safaricombusiness.co.ke.
  ifinax.net mail is handled by 0 rat-02.safaricombusiness.co.ke.

   $ telnet rat-03.safaricombusiness.co.ke smtp
  Trying 41.203.208.141...
  Connected to rat-03.safaricombusiness.co.ke.
  Escape character is '^]'.
  220 thk-tes-rat05.safaricombusiness.co.ke ESMTP
  MAIL From:<schwarze@mandoc.bsd.lv>
  250 sender <schwarze@mandoc.bsd.lv> ok
  RCPT To:<info@ifinax.net>
  550 #5.1.0 Address rejected.
  QUIT
  221 thk-tes-rat05.safaricombusiness.co.ke
  Connection closed by foreign host.

The identical problem occurs when i relay the mail via the official
outgoing mailserver of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology:

  Reporting-MTA: dns; smarthost.kit.edu
  Action: failed
  Final-Recipient: rfc822;info@ifinax.net
  Status: 5.0.0
  Remote-MTA: dns; rat-02.safaricombusiness.co.ke
  Diagnostic-Code: smtp; 550 #5.1.0 Address rejected.

So please fix your mail server first, and then tell me which email
address you want listed after that.

Yours,
  Ingo
