no hostname become unresolvable.

Right - Thanks for pointing it out.

I inherited a lot of zones and never went back and changed them.  The @
is something I do use in alias zones - we have a couple hundred domains
and many of them go to the same IP and using @ I'm able to use a single
zone file to incorporate the ones that all go to the same IP for the
domain.

Using @ would be simpler and would allow the zone file to be used for
other zones as well.
