Remarks

This method resolves an email address. Calling this method directs the class to query dns_server at port dns_port about MX records related to EmailAddress.

The server's response is provided through one or more on_response events.

After the query completes, the mail_server property is set to the best mail server and the status property has the result description of the response.

Valid queries are email addresses like name@company.com or hostnames and domains like domain.com.

Example (Determine Top Priority Mail Server of Email Address)

MXControl.Resolve "email@server.com"
While MXControl.MailServer = ""
	MXControl.DoEvents()
End While
BestMailServer = MXControl.MailServer
