Thanks for your help. I've been away for a few days and not able to test
things. Here's the results of what you ask:

This returns:

    Failed: "lookup" failed and "fail" requested


> 2: perl -e '($n,$a,$t,$l,@ip)=gethostbyname("smtp.gmail.com"); print "n=$n\na=$a\n"; for (@ip) {($w,$x,$y,$z)=unpack('W4',$_); print "$w.$x.$y.$z\n"}'


This returns:

    n=gmail-smtp-msa.l.google.com
    a=smtp.gmail.com
    74.125.68.108
