mx-record

From the phpmanual, the getmxrr( get mx record) is a bool value, it is true if the record exist. However, i would like to get more information about the mail domain, for example: A simple mx lookup record (hotmail) is like this: Pref Hostname IP Address TTL 5 mx1.hotmail.com 65.55.92.152 60 min 5 mx2.hotmail.com 65.55.92.152 60 min 5 mx3.hotmail.com 65.54.188.110 60 min 5 mx4.hotmail.com 65.55.92.136 60 min Can i obtain the above information using getmxrr? Thank you. Second parameter gives mx host list: $hosts = array(); getmxrr('hotmail.com', $hosts); var_dump($hosts); getmxrr to get and ip

I am writing an application that is requiring me to do a DNS lookup for an MX record. I'm not sure if anyone has had experience doing this kind of work but if you do, any help would be appreciated. EDIT: The thing that I'm going for is an application that will send an e-mail alert. The problem is I need to have the application be able to lookup the MX record for a domain. The simplest method is to simply use commonly available tools. The basic "dig" command will return the records to you via this query: dig mx example.com If you want just the lines with the mx records... dig mx example.com |

This is a problem I'm sure is easy to fix, but I've been banging my head on it all day. I'm developing a new web site for a client. The web site resides at (this is an example) website.com. I have a PHP form script to email visitors' requests to requests@website.com. When I coded this on a staging server on a different domain, all worked fine. When I moved it to website.com, the mail messages never arrived. The web server is on a virtual host with a major ISP. Here's what I've learned since then: My client's mail server is Microsoft Exchange on a box physically in their office. Whenever

Scenario: I have a contact form on my web app, it gets alot of spam. I am validating the format of email addresses loosely i.e. ^.+@.+\..+$ I am using a spam filtering service (defensio) but the spam scores returned are overlapping with valid messages. At a threshold of 0.4 some spam gets through and some customer's questions are wrongly thrown in a log and an error displayed. All of the spam messages use fake email addresses e.g. zxmzxm@ywduasm.com Dedicated PHP5 Linux server in US, mysql, logging spam only, emailing the non spam messages (not stored). Proposal: Use php's checkdnsrr(preg

Is there any built in method in the .NET library that will return all of the MX records for a given domain? I see how you get CNAMES, but not MX records. Just roled my own library because there was nothing for .net core / xplat support... https://github.com/MichaCo/DnsClient.NET It works pretty great and gives you dig like log messages if you want. Simple to use var lookup = new LookupClient(); var result = await lookup.QueryAsync("google.com", QueryType.ANY); and works with custom servers running on any ports, multiple servers, etc... see also DnsClient Website for more details Update 2018/5
