--- Comment #2 from Karsten Bräckelmann <[email protected]> ---
It does not need an A record, it is not an actual machine.

DNS is used as a mechanism to distribute update information. TXT records are
used for bootstrapping (see comment 1) and actual version / rules revision
information with the SA version encoded in reverse as the host name.

$ host -t TXT 0.4.3.updates.spamassassin.org
0.4.3.updates.spamassassin.org is an alias for 2.3.3.updates.spamassassin.org.
2.3.3.updates.spamassassin.org descriptive text "1588424"

Closing RESOLVED INVALID, aka "not a bug".
