Hi all,

here are some DNS related error messages reported by auto-mass-check in
--net mode that should probably be caught?

try with dig & you'll get

dig A 0u_e3czdty8udzyvx98_ox97tdy97utd3aut09ultcdaumtd3unqnrrntw3utwv8utweut80u.jp +short dig: '0u_e3czdty8udzyvx98_ox97tdy97utd3aut09ultcdaumtd3unqnrrntw3utwv8utweut80u.jp' is not a legal name (label too long)

iirc, max label size is 63 chars. so this is hardly SA but a DNS "feature"

dns: new_dns_packet (domain=podify-merchants..com. type=A class=IN) failed: a 
domain name contains a
null label

I see these often but haven't been able to reproduce the two periods before the tld. I'm sure someone here will be able to explain this in detail.

For future reference, would you prefer me to report things like this
directly using Bugzilla, or is it ok to post here?

Here is fine so others can check before we open bugs which aren't.
