Hello learned people ;-) In our domain - wananchi.com - we have a server called ns2.wananchi.com which also happens to be our main mail server. For the domains we host, we use the name mail.wananchi.com as the name of the primary MX. mail.wananchi.com is a CNAME of ns2.wananchi.com. NS2 is our registered NS. Now the question that I have is: Is this bad that our MX is a CNAME. If yes, is there a good/clean way of going round this while maintaining the name?
