11 int dns_mx(stralloc* out,stralloc* fqdn);
12
14 dns_mx looks up MX records for the fully-qualified domain name in fqdn.
15 It puts the MX records into out and returns 0. Each MX record is a two-
16 byte MX distance (big endian) followed by a \0-terminated dot-encoded
17 domain name. If the domain does not exist in DNS, or has no MX records,
18 out will be empty.

20 If dns_mx has trouble with the DNS lookup or runs out of memory, it
21 returns -1, setting errno appropriately. It may or may not change out.
