[isp-dns] Re: domain registered, but expired

No.

A domain is either "registered" (meaning that you can't go and register the 
domain, since someone else has), or "not registered" (in which case the 
domain doesn't exist, and can be registered).

In this case, the domain expired, but is still registered (apparently to 
the registrar).  It could be that the registrar has a 30-day grace period, 
for example, during which the original registrant can re-register it.

For an expired domain, it should be impossible for anyone to access the 
domain (the web site, E-mail, etc.).
