Hi Aleksandr,

I’am somewhat lost, I’am able to set a rule to have the Lua function called for MX requests, but how do I return a response? Spoof ist just for A-records, but not for MX.
addLuaAction(QTypeRule(dnsdist.MX), luarule)

Do I have to generate an Answer, but how? Is it possible to use dq::addAnswer(), which I have found in the recursor documentation, is this valid for dnsdist too?

Best regards.

Loading the file on every request would definitely become a performance issue.

In Lua you can check for query type to be MX and load a list of domains from a file using ‘io.open’. Provide necessary DNS response if the query matches your list of zones. Additionally, you might want to limit this operation to specific networks with NetMask or NetMaskGroup.

I need to redirect outgoing e-mails (specific domains only) to a smtp gateway for further processing before it leaves the local network. I cannot use any kind of transport tables at the MTA, so my approach was to use dns therefore.
