The following aliases are not allowed to be present
on the right hand side of MX records, as you have done
below. Also, the EXTREF token that you have at the end
is wrong. It's not an external reference. If you removed
that nslint would generate the error that tells you not
to put CNAMEs on the right-hand side of an MX, which is
why this zone is rejected by BIND.
