No, I have a domain, pointerstop.ca, that works just fine. The MX points to
google hosted mail, and the A records point to an unrelated hosting
provider, so it's a little odd. But really, I'm just wondering what
conceivable errors DNSStuff thinks they've found. I don't actually think
there are any, and don't plan to give them a credit card number to find
that I'm right.

Thanks very much. That's exactly what I wanted.
