I don't know if this is too late or whatever, but take a look at the
Net::DNS documentation.
http://search.cpan.org/doc/MFUHR/Net-DNS-0.12/lib/Net/DNS.pm
Under the Methods section, there's a really short example of doing MX lookups.

Thanks. To tell you honestly, I really appreciate being able to share some
of the really cool stuff that I have learned about my favorite little
language here to a very receptive and appreciative audience.
I hope you don't get too frustrated, but if you do, you know where to look. : )
Thank you for your time,
Sean.
