    I'm using DNSPort to anonymize my DNS queries. I changed from public DNS, because of PRISM scandal.

    And I found this problem:

    "A" Query resolved correctly,

    nslookup -type=a google.com Address: X.X.X.X

    but "MX" and "TXT" returns...

    nslookup -type=mx google.com *** can't find google.com: Not implemented ***

    So my question is, how can I request MX and TXT over Tor DNS? This "DNSPort" will be great alternative to public dns services, if Tor can do this.

    {An idea about this problem} How about adding "DNSRelayIP"?

    sample: DNSPort 127.0.0.1:53 DNSRelayIP 129.250.35.250 DNSRelayIP 129.250.35.251

    Meaning: User can query A,MX,TXT to Tor DNS. Tor will query A via Tor. Tor will query MX and TXT to "DNSRelayIP"(TCP normal traffic).
