Look at the code in pydns.sf.net - there's a function in the lazy module
called "mxlookup". For instance, 

>>> import DNS
>>> DNS.DiscoverNameServers()  # win or unix, initialise resolver.
>>> DNS.mxlookup('interlink.com.au')
[(0, 'mx1.interlink.com.au'), (50, 'mx2.interlink.com.au')]

How does your dnslib differ from Guido's original code?
