I'm quite surprised that there haven't been many requests for this before, since it's such a logical function imho. Isn't -A/host.dom.ain/new_address (equivalently --address=...) what you want?

For split-horizon DNS, I define local IPv4 and IPv6 hosts in the /etc/hosts file. dnsmasq can look at /etc/hosts first and will use it if found, else it will look upstream.

If I add a manual record in there, then it has to be manually updated when the public mx record changes. I only want to overwrite the A record and want the other records to be resolved from the public DNS.
