Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/modoboa/modoboa/issues/2228

Impacted versions

OS Type: Ubuntu
OS Version: 20.94.2 LTS
Database Type: PostgreSQL
Database version: 12.6
Modoboa: 1.17
installer used: Yes
Webserver: Nginx

Steps to reproduce

Add a new domain via the Web UI, with no DNS records yet created.

You should get the message below from Modoboa:

Current behavior

After adding a new domain with no (yet) DNS records created, I keep getting the No DNS record found error message, and my domain is stuck at Awaiting checks status.

Expected behavior

Modoboa should have a way to trigger the DNS checks again. There is no way to manually check the DNS again after adding the domain.

Issue https://github.com/modoboa/modoboa/issues/1023 would fix this.

After adding the DNS records required by Modoboa and running /srv/modoboa/env/bin/python /srv/modoboa/instance/manage.py modo check_mx manually, I was able to get the domain working.

So back to #1023 where I think this should be in the Admin Web UI.
