Thanks Meredith and Ron:

Here's the url from whois:
http://www.switch.ch/cgi-bin/info/whois?Query=mainespeakout.org&Server=whois.networksolutions.com 

Meredith said: "The old host's line about "that would be the only way
someone could tell who the Registrar was" is poopy-caca, near as I can
tell.  I suspect it's an excuse because someone is too lazy to get off
their butt and submit the correction.

If you are listed as a contact, then you can correct this matter
yourself. It would help if we had the whois info to see what your
options are.  But for now, as long as the name servers are correct and
propagated through the system, then the domain should work no matter who
is listed as tech contact."

Meredith, they old hosts, but I think the problem is that they are also
the Registrar (that's what has made it confusing to me).  I am the
contact.

hehe, I know that now!  ;-)  I tried to get more help from both of them,
but essentially all I got was "fill out our form" - well, live and
learn.

I don't have an NT box.

> not set you up. Call them ASAP.

I have written e-mails back and forth and got the "you've got to name us
as tech support, which is when I turned here.  Been trying to call too,
and can usually get through, but all I get is message machine.

Thanks for getting into this with me.

Donna
