> I think DNS is something few people take the time to learn, but it's not actually hard to learn. Hard disagree. For me, DNS is like doing taxes: I touch it once a year or so, find it Byzantine, know enough to be dangerous, but am always frustrated that I don't use it often enough to remember exactly how to configure things without having to consult poorly written and/or overly technical tutorials. I'd like to see a better version of web-based tools like mxtoolbox.com that will analyze DNS records, let you know what's wrong, and give you actual examples of what settings you need for things like DMARC/DKIM/SPF records. In my experience, online tutorials for setting them up come tantalizingly close to giving me what I need, but I often end up getting stuck with the last few details (usually the weird punctuation required) because, again, I touch this stuff so infrequently I just don't remember from one time to the next. Ideally I'd want a form-based tool that gives you drop-downs to select from and, when submitted, just gives you the actual record you need.
