It might err on the side of too much detail (drink from a firehose anyone?)
It could certainly use plenty of extra examples - and perhaps some screen >shots from popular DNS management pages and email configuration pages etc.
Perhaps it could include tables of common SPF records for popular mail >systems etc?

I have now read this in more depth, many thanks for all the work you
have put in!
Is it possible to break down/analyse an email address e.g.
Email address: enquiries@rapidplumbers.com
The elements of the address are:
I don't know the technical bits but name, @ sign, domain etc. - it might
make it easier for people task better questions rather than fumbling
along like I did.
Something I have seen but don't know how it works like the ability to ad
+nnn to the name.
From memory of playing with Slackware (30 years ago) overcoming Linux
smarts to ensure an email is sent externally, I think it involved a '%'
sign?
I'm sure you can tell from this how much I need the Wiki page :-)
