It's entirely possible that the spammer has control of
a dns server and simply creates a name, sends the mail,
and then deletes the name. Easy enough and nothing you
can do about it.
That said, the norecursion flag is really just a clumsy
hack around the fact that the Plan 9 dns server accepts
glue records indiscriminately from anyone.
See http://ketil.froyn.name/poison.html for a good
description and demonstration.
cpu% ndb/dnsquery
> bad.ketil.froyn.name ns
bad.ketil.froyn.name ns www.example.com
> www.example.com ip
www.example.com ip 217.144.230.29
> ^D
cpu%
That's wrong. The www.example.com glue record
in the bad.ketil.froyn.name ns lookup should have
been ignored.
I would be very happy if someone would fix this.
Thanks.
