Ralf Hauser commented on JAMES-796:
-----------------------------------

thx for the feedback - we found the culprit, a large Swiss ISP

the DNS servers from sunrise sometimes do no recursive lookup. For 
zunft-oberstrass.ch they return no MX record and no authoritative nameserver.
For gmx.ch they return both.

"193.192.227.3",// (ns1.sunrise.ch)
"195.141.56.5",// (ns2.sunrise.ch)
"194.158.230.53",// (ns3.sunrise.ch)
"194.230.1.5",// (ns4.sunrise.ch)

if a work-around is really easy as in the current situation, wouldn't it make 
sense to spend the extra few LOC and do that recursive lookup ourselves in 
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/james/server/trunk/core-library/src/main/java/org/apache/james/dnsserver/DNSServer.java?view=markup

> Do also query authoritative nameservers to obtain MX record

> for example for zunft-oberstrass.ch
> DNSServer.lockup("zunft-oberstrass.ch", Type.MX, "MX")
> will return null, but
> DNSServer.lockup("zunft-oberstrass.ch", Type.NS, "NS")
> will return two authoritative nameservers, which then can be queried and 
> return the MX record for zunft-oberstrass.ch.
