I don't think I am suggesting to get into the bad DNS managements tools. But the section is short on what are possible error issues. One of them is making sure other TXT records don't conflict. I think that can be a general, generic statement that does not get into poor DNS management tools implementation. -- HLS _______________________________________________ NOTE WELL: This list operates according to http://mipassoc.org/dkim/ietf-list-rules.html
