.TH dns_mx 3 .SH NAME dns_mx \- look up Mail eXchanger .SH SYNTAX .B #include int \fBdns_mx\fP(stralloc* \fIout\fR,stralloc* \fIfqdn\fR); .SH DESCRIPTION dns_mx looks up MX records for the fully-qualified domain name in \fIfqdn\fR. It puts the MX records into \fIout\fR and returns 0. Each MX record is a two-byte MX distance (big endian) followed by a \\0-terminated dot-encoded domain name. If the domain does not exist in DNS, or has no MX records, \fIout\fR will be empty. If dns_mx has trouble with the DNS lookup or runs out of memory, it returns -1, setting errno appropriately. It may or may not change \fIout\fR. .SH "SEE ALSO" dns_mx_packet(3), dns_ip4(3), dns_ip6(3)
