Excuse me? You're obvioulsy still not thinking straight about how this
kind of consistency checking _must_ work. Obviously neither my mailer
nor my caching nameserver can keep tabs on all the A records in all the
zones in all the DNS, nor can they intuit what other inconsistent A
records you might have configured for the same address your mailer is
using.

Perhaps you should try some more variations on mis-configuring your DNS
and experiment some more with connecting to my mailer.

You know they've got these wonderful things called "search engines"...
They generate references with great ease, and not even that many if you
have any luck choosing your search parameters....
