Re: how to avoid receiving email w. sender forged to be a host in my domain

That is exactly the rule most often violated with CNAMEs. Any node that contains a CNAME record cannot contain any "other data" records, which also excludes "*" in a CNAME node, giving the infamous BIND log line of "...CNAME and other data...".

CNAMEs work great, people don't, so people should avoid CNAMEs unless they really need them and they know how to use CNAMEs.

Ok, lesson learned for me. Thanks for the help.
