The only time you're required to provide glue is when a subzone is
delegated to a nameserver whose name is in the subzone, to prevent a
chicken-and-egg problem.



This is what I thought but thought I'd make doubly certain.  Thanks!

That is correct because you are only allowing MX to resolve instead of
allowing the A records that MX points too also resolve.

 When I query from an address that matches the ACL for the external view, I
 get the MX records back OK, but no A record.

 Is that right?

 Would a client just go and try to resolve the name on it's own?

 not, but thought I'd better ask.

 Version: 9.3.6-P1-RedHat-9.3.6-4.P1.el5_4.2 if it matters.

Presumably because you don't allow recursion or query-cache for external 
clients.

Of course.
