Imagine my surprise when I saw this output:&lt;p&gt;

&lt;pre&gt;$ host valleywag.com
valleywag.com has address 69.60.7.199
valleywag.com mail is handled by 1 aspmx.l.google.com.
valleywag.com mail is handled by 5 alt1.aspmx.l.google.com.
valleywag.com mail is handled by 5 alt2.aspmx.l.google.com.
valleywag.com mail is handled by 10 aspmx2.googlemail.com.&lt;/pre&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If I am interpreting this correctly, Valleywag's email is being handled by Gmail/Google Apps, which is slightly ironic.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6525469191850690957-8439220368791256078?l=blog.persistent.info' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://blog.persistent.info/feeds/8439220368791256078/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://blog.persistent.info/2007/09/valleywag-brought-to-you-bygoogle.html#comment-form' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6525469191850690957/posts/default/8439220368791256078'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6525469191850690957/posts/default/8439220368791256078'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://blog.persistent.info/2007/09/valleywag-brought-to-you-bygoogle.html' title='Valleywag, brought to you by....Google?'/><author><name>Mihai Parparita</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12343650264888591427</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='14473909087239144495'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>5</thr:total></entry>
