There seem to be a lot of people who want to do this (responses to queries
based on source address). The access-list method can't work, but it would
be nice to have some way of doing this.
One reason would be to serve phoney A records to known email address
harvesters. They want the A record for www.your.dom and you answer with
127.0.0.1 or maybe with the address of www.ftc.gov. I can also think of a
few legit reasons to have source-dependant responses, but in my case
they'd be excuses.
I already use ACLs to deny responses to spam-friendly sites, but wouldn't
it be nice if you could get them into trouble by directing them to places
they'd normally avoid?
Anyway, there's a definite demand for this 'feature'.
