$ORIGIN headcounter.com.
@		SOA	virtual.virtualworldinc.com. hostmaster.virtualworldinc.com. (
			1999080903 3600 900 1209600 43200 )
		NS	VIRTUAL.VIRTUALWORLDINC.COM.
		NS	OPAL.NBNET.NB.CA.

		HINFO	"Pentium II 400" "Linux"
ftp		CNAME	@
www		CNAME	@
mail		CNAME	@
localhost	A	127.0.0.1

Only 1 MX record as mail.headcounter.com and mail.virtualworldinc.com are
the same IP address.

CNAMES for ftp, www and mail as they are the same IP address.

Localhost is not needed unless headcounter.com is in a search list.
