Actually, Paul, I was using the "dig @nameserver domain.name" method,
while you are using "dig domain.name nameserver" variation.
I just tried that, and with "any" it still doesn't give much useful
information, but "-t mx" does show both MX records.
Don't you love it when the documentation ( man page ) doesn't seem to
match the program?
"-t txt" doesn't return anything, still.
Oh, well.
What prompted this was error messages from Yahoo.com about DMARC and SPF
when we try to send e-mail messages to Yahoo addresses.
Thanks,
Brian
