NOTES
Note
This function should not be used for the purposes of address verification. Only the mailexchangers found in DNS are returned, how-
ever, according to RFC 2821 when no mail exchangers are listed, $hostname itself should be used as the only mail exchanger with a
priority of 0.
Note
For compatibility with Windows before this was implemented, then try the PEAR class Net_DNS.
