If there is no MX record, A record represents mail host. It is not an error
to have no MX Records and neither is it necessary to recieve mail.
We could do something like attached snippet inside DNSServer::findMXRecords.
We should also change the logging to say INFO or WARN if not DEBUG for the
above message.
-------------------------------
String domainToSendMailTo = ....
Collection collection = .... // get mx record from DNSServer.
if ( collection.size() == 0 ) {
try {
InetAddress.getByName(hostname);
} catch (UnknownHostException ex) {
// there is no A record.
collection.add(hostname);
}
}
// use <collection> to send mail
-------------------------------
thoughts ?
