Sorry, I'm now completely confused. Maybe it has just been a long day, but... Ned, by "disable MX lookups", do you mean "don't put MX records into the DNS zone and therefore force a fallback to the address records" or "ignore the requirement of the standard that requires using MX records if they are there"? If the latter, the behavior, however useful (or not) is, IMO, so far outside the standard that it is irrelevant to any discussion about how DNS records are used in a standard way. Keith, what do administrative domains have to do with this? If I can write foo.example.com. IN MX 0 foo.example.com. foo.example.com. IN A 10.0.0.6 then, as things are now specified, I can lose the MX record entirely with no difference in effect. Similarly, if I can write foo.example.net. IN MX 0 foo.example.com. foo.example.com. IN A 10.0.0.6 Things still work as predicted if I discard the first record, keep the second, but either know to reference the relevant SMTP server as "foo.example.com" or, if I don't need "foo.example.net" for anything else, insert a record in the "example.net" zone that looks like foo.example.net IN CNAME foo.example.com. Certainly there are cases where that is administratively burdensome, or at least annoying. There are also cases in which I need multiple MX records, not a single implicit one. But, for these fairly common cases... john _______________________________________________ IETF mailing list IETF@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
