I also reached out to them on Twitter but they directed me to this form. I followed up with them on Twitter with what happened in this screenshot but they are now ignoring me.

    Mmm… That doesn’t seem right, it’s usually gotta be fully expanded to at least a particular A record/MX.

    How would you tie the tld itself to an MX?

      TLD is just another DNS layer, try an SOA or NS lookup for “com.” those are obviously hosted somewhere. Hell the “.” at the end is even another layer with the root nameservers. You’d probably trip up a bunch of systems that filter on common convention rather than the actual RFC, but you could do it.

        How the hell were the original rfc designers so creative as to result in such a flexible system?? It’s gets crazier the more you look at it.
