The servers on seismo and ucbvax were set up to reflect this. Recently, Other subdomains of .AU have been used. Seismo is correctly (I think...) returning the MX record for *.AU, but it is possible that ucbvax is only serving for *.OZ.AU or that the need you to explicitly list the second domain. You should probably try *.OZ.AU or whatever other subdomain you are interested in. There are no sites directly under .AU, so I'm not sure what the "correct" response to x.AU should be. --rick
