While Thunderbird uses DNS lookups to resolve autoconfig.example.com,
automx2 does not use DNS lookups to determine which server names need to
be returned. It will only answer requests based on DB content.

Each domain must be listed separately in the database. The same goes for
each unique server. You can then associate servers with multiple domains
by creating entries in the "*server_domain" tables, i.e. use classic
many-to-many relationships.
