Now, what exactly is the supposed difference between the classic * and the

RR defined for them? Or is there another difference?
The new wildcard applies if the RR does not exist; whether this
is because the domain does not exist or because the node does
not contain the specified RR.
On a related question:
What if **.zonecut.example.org does exist, with an SPF record,
and xyz.abc.zonecut.example.org does exist, with an TXT record (v=spf1)
Should we use the SPF record, or the TXT record ?
