Hi all

I know, this is a silly question. But I have to be certain because
a number of people are involved.

===
$ nslookup
 > set q=mx
 > MYSLD.TLD
Server:         192.168.0.1
Address:        192.168.0.1#53

Non-authoritative answer:
MYSLD.TLD  mail exchanger = 5 \
    spamfilter.MYSLD.TLD.MYSLD-TLD.ch.
MYSLD.TLD  mail exchanger = 10 \
    mail.MYSLD.TLD.MYSLD-TLD.

Authoritative answers can be found from:

The problem is that the MYSLD.TLD pattern repeats, mail to
users at MYSLD.TLD get rejected due to this.

My quesion is, whether the problem is just a missing "dot" in MX?
    IN MX 5         spamfilter.MYSLD.TLD
                                        ^dot here
    IN MX 10        mail.MYSLD.TLD
                                  ^and here
mail              IN A    IP-ADDRESS
spamfilter        IN A    IP-ADDRESS

And also I'm curious, why there is nothing after the line "Authoritative
answers can be found from:".
