<DIV><FONT size=2>In pdns.pdf,something about fancy-records is stated as
:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>MBOXFW</FONT></DIV><FONT size=2>
<DIV><BR>This record denotes an email forward. A typical entry looks like
this:<BR><A href="mailto:support@yourdomain.com">support@yourdomain.com</A>
MBOXFW <A href="mailto:you@yourcompany.com">you@yourcompany.com</A><BR>When PDNS
encounters a request for an MX record for yourdomain.com it will, if fancy
records<BR>are enabled, also check for the existence of an MBOXFW record ending
on <A href="mailto:¡¯@yourdomain.com¡¯">¡¯@yourdomain.com¡¯</A>, in<BR>which case it
will hand out a record containing the configured smtpredirector. This server
should<BR>then also be able to access the PDNS database to figure out where mail
to<BR><A href="mailto:support@yourdomain.com">support@yourdomain.com</A> should
go to.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>URL</DIV>
<DIV><BR>URL records work in much the same way, but for HTTP. A sample
record:<BR>yourdomain.com URL <A
href="http://somewhere.else.com/yourdomain">http://somewhere.else.com/yourdomain</A><BR>A
URL record is converted into an A record containing the IP address configured
with the<BR>urlredirector setting. On that IP address a webserver should live
that knows how to redirect<BR>yourdomain.com to <A
href="http://somewhere.else.com/yourdomain">http://somewhere.else.com/yourdomain</A>.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Who can tell me details when URL forward and Email forward
happen?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>In addition, if I inserted URL and MBOXFW records into gmysql
DB,can I use dig or any other linux commands query these records? For
example, issue the following commands from command line:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>dig @localhost <A href="mailto:abc@test.com">abc@test.com</A>
MBOXFW</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>dig @localhost url.test.com URL</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>and obtain successful returned
informations?</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
