dusk:~$ mx -v tecnicard.net
tecnicard.net           2588    IN      MX      5
208.238.44.154
 !!! tecnicard.net MX host 208.238.44.154 has illegal name


This MX record is totally invalid. No one is able to send
mail to @tecnicard.net addresses since the domain has no
valid MX or A records. Their DNS admin should fix his
nameserver ASAP.
(typical error, having an IP address in an MX or NS
record..)
