Folks, you are trying to solve a problem that the mobile-ip and zeroconf groups are already addressing.

For others of you who might be to answer similarly: Please go read the draft. It is *not* a problem addressed by mobile-ip and zeroconf. Finding the "qualcomm.com" submission server (whether it currently points to "submission.qualcomm.com" on port 587 or "outgoing.qualcomm.com" on port 25) is not addressed by zeroconf. Zeroconf addresses finding "the submission server on *this* network". I am at a loss to figure out what problem mobile-ip addresses in this space, but it is certainly not in the scope of the current discussion.
