+ * requires quoting according to the rules in RFC822 then the
+ * local-part is quoted in double quotes, which end at the next
+ * unescaped double quote. (\ is the escape char, and is doubled, and
+ * is used to escape only \ and ".) Otherwise the local-part is

+ * family (ie, in AF_XXX, the XXX), and then one or more items for the

+ * syntax is INET followed by the dotted quad (from inet_ntoa).
+ * Currently only IPv4 is supported.
+ *
+ * Text strings (as in adns_rr_txt) appear inside double quotes, and

+ * a piece of text), for the address lookup, followed by zero or more
+ * addresses enclosed in ( and ). If the result was a permanent
+ * failure, then a single ? appears instead of the ( ). If the
+ * result was a temporary failure then an empty pair of parentheses
+ * appears (which a space in between). For example, one of the NS
+ * records for greenend.org.uk comes out like

+ * an MX referring to a nonexistent host might come out like:
+ * 50 sun2.nsfnet-relay.ac.uk nxdomain "No such domain" ( )
