Pratap,

That's all well and good.

And the 'newness' of the domain.tld and short TTL in the DNS will *eventually*
not be a barrier, either.

But before you invest much more effort in testing, have a think on what Todd
pointed out, and I confirmed:

The .info TLD has a bad reputation.

Bad enough to not only get diverted to spam, but even unconditionally hard-blocked.

Not everyone will do that, but our experience is not unique.
EG: If .info is not spam-always, then .info is spam-mostly.

If you don't want to use a less notorious TLD than .info, then perhaps using a
'smarthost' with a less obnoxious TLD for your outbound traffic would be wise.

If your business plan was to send unsolicited, or 'formerly' solicited, but now
nuisance traffic, then - hey - just keep right on with what you are doing. Those
flies will never reach MY watermelon.

;-)
