I'm trying to debug a DNS issue:

# host www.pimda.eu
www.pimda.eu has address 88.208.252.197
Host www.pimda.eu not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
Host www.pimda.eu not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)

Where does the NXDOMAIN come from?

# host -t a www.pimda.eu
www.pimda.eu has address 88.208.252.197

# host -t aaaa www.pimda.eu
Host www.pimda.eu not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)

# host -t mx www.pimda.eu
Host www.pimda.eu not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)

According to the docs, host "By default, it looks for A, AAAA, and MX
records". But why am I getting three results? Usually I'm only getting
ONE!
