[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-465?page=comments#action_12375505 ]
Norman Maurer commented on JAMES-465: ------------------------------------- Forget to post the RFC-Part: The lookup first attempts to locate an MX record associated with the name. If a CNAME record is found instead, the resulting name is processed as if it were the initial name. If no MX records are found, but an A RR is found, the A RR is treated as if it was associated with an implicit MX RR, with a preference of 0, pointing to that host. its in RFC: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2821.txt 5.
