A non-problem for most of us. > Michael If one really wants to reduce the number of packets required with SMTP processibg just write a RFC that says A and AAAA records should be returned in the additional section if no MX records exist at the qname. This is currently permitted so vendors could do this today. Alternatively change SMTP processing to not fallback to A / AAAA on no MX. Set a date several years out my which all sites that accept email need to publish a MX record. This really should have been done years ago. Instead we have null-MX to signal that there isn't a SMTP server.
