The DNS protocol specifies that when a client queries for a specific record type (e.g., TXT) for a certain domain name (e.g., example.com), all records of that type must be returned in the same DNS message. That may lead to large transactions with lots of "unnecessary" information being transferred and/or uncertainty about which TXT record to use.
The characteristic payload information of an MX record [1] is a preference value (above labelled "Priority"), and the domain name of a mailserver ("Host" above).. The priority field identifies which mailserver should be preferred - in this case the values are both 10, so mail would be expected to flow evenly to both onemail.example.com and twomail.example.com - a common configuration.
RFC 973 replaced these records with the MX record. MF 4 MAILA 254 MB 7 RFC 883 Not formally obsoleted. Unlikely to be ever adopted (RFC 2505). MB, MG, MR, and MINFO are records to publish subscriber mailing lists. MAILB is a query code which returns one of those records. The intent was for MB and MG to replace the SMTP VRFY and EXPN commands ...
So, a lookup for the MX record for somerandomname.example.com would return an MX record pointing to host1.example.com. Wildcards in the DNS are much more limited than other wildcard characters used in other computer systems. Wildcard DNS records have a single * (asterisk) as the leftmost DNS label, such as *.example.com.
Zone transfer consists of a preamble, followed by the actual data transfer. The preamble comprises a lookup of the Start of Authority (SOA) resource record for the "zone apex", the node of the DNS namespace that is at the top of the "zone". The fields of this SOA resource record, in particular the "serial number", determine whether the actual ...

Records can be put in a database as a relation and viewed in a tabular form. The XML schema is defined in Appendix C of specifications [ 15 ] and a raw record is exemplified in dmarc.org. [ 16 ] Here we stick with a relational example, which better conveys the nature of the data.
The format of a zone file is defined in RFC 1035 (section 5) and RFC 1034 (section 3.6.1). This format was originally used by the Berkeley Internet Name Domain (BIND) software package, but has been widely adopted by other DNS server software – though some of them (e.g. NSD, PowerDNS) are using the zone files only as a starting point to compile them into database format, see also Microsoft ...
