Please don't hesitate to contact us > should you have any further questions or concerns. I'm finding *nothing* else that uses underscores in the names of A records. I'm thinking I should stick with "mtx" instead of "_mtx". Please let me know if there is some evidence I'm missing that it's reasonable to use an underscore in this context. I could use TXT records. I kind of like the A records.
