Description

We probably have hosted mail domains which are no more authoritative, so we should report them.

On difficulty is we could still be in charge of MX while no more in charge of DNS, even if there's high probability the user switch to a new hosting completely. So we could be impacted by #566. I'm not keen in using a provider's global DNS like Google, so maybe we should parse the whois to get the authoritative NS in this case too.

I created the adm_check_mx script in the admin repo.

Here is the current output:

Unfotunately, our MX1 has two names:
  • mx.duckcorp.org
  • mx1.duckcorp.org
    I picked the later to be the canonical one but the former is still in use and the script does not handle this, which leads to false positives. It would be complicated to handle having a list of names for each MX and there is no use for it anyway, so I would prefer cleaning up the DNS zones.

If the DEBUG environment variable is set, then the script dumps a structure which could later be used for aggregation.

Fixed duckcorp.debian.net.

Differentiate between no entry and no MX on the entry.

Asked Rtp about his dyndns entry.

Yep, I did cleaned this up when I migrated the LDAP content to an Ansible-generated system.

Same goes for HurdFr and Andesi stuff.
