Claudio,

Two small suggestions:

(1) The second-level name should be X400 or MHS or something similar.  It 
should not cite an RFC number; RFC's change.  Hence X400.IT or MHS.IT or
MOTIS.IT, but not RFC1327.IT.

(2) Please consider using an RR names that does not start in "X".  There
is a tradition in Internet applications protocols of using things starting
in "X" to denote private-use extensions.  While that practice has not
penetrated into DNS usage as far as I know, it might do so in the future.
