20 /* This function is called by a router to fill in the IP addresses for a set of
21 hosts that are attached to an address. Each host has its name and MX value set;
22 and those that need processing have their address fields set NULL. Multihomed
23 hosts cause additional blocks to be inserted into the chain.
25 This function also supports pseudo-hosts whose names end with "/MX". In this
26 case, MX records are looked up for the name, and the list of hosts obtained
27 replaces the incoming "host". In other words, "x/MX" is shorthand for "those
28 hosts pointed to by x's MX records".
30 It is also possible for a port to be specified along with the host name or IP
31 address. The syntax is to add ":port" on to the end. This doesn't work with
32 IPv6 addresses, so we allow IP addresses to be enclosed in [] in order to make
33 this work. The specification of the port must come last, that is, after "/MX"
