I would like to be able to extract an MX record for the domain
of an address I have to send mail to.  Contacting the right SMTP
host will allow me to avoid relaying errors, since some of the
mail to be sent must go on behalf of agents, whose email addresses
are outside our domain.

I realise I could do os.popen("nslookup ..."), and then hack around
the the ensuing command output, but something a little
more direct would be helpful.  I don't see a dnslib module :-(

regards
 Steve
