$ mxlookup pipeline.com
Server:  localhost

Non-authoritative answer:
pipeline.com    preference = 5, mail exchanger = mx05.pipeline.com
pipeline.com    preference = 5, mail exchanger = mx06.pipeline.com
pipeline.com    preference = 5, mail exchanger = mx07.pipeline.com
pipeline.com    preference = 5, mail exchanger = mx08.pipeline.com
pipeline.com    preference = 5, mail exchanger = mx09.pipeline.com
pipeline.com    preference = 5, mail exchanger = mx10.pipeline.com
pipeline.com    preference = 5, mail exchanger = mx11.pipeline.com
pipeline.com    preference = 5, mail exchanger = mx12.pipeline.com
pipeline.com    preference = 5, mail exchanger = mx00.pipeline.com
pipeline.com    preference = 5, mail exchanger = mx01.pipeline.com
pipeline.com    preference = 5, mail exchanger = mx02.pipeline.com
pipeline.com    preference = 5, mail exchanger = mx03.pipeline.com
pipeline.com    preference = 5, mail exchanger = mx04.pipeline.com
$ nslookup pipeline.com
