Hi,

I'm getting a ValueError for one of my domains when running manage.py modo check_mx. I can't see any difference bwtween the MX reord of this domain compared to all other domains. This is the output from the manage.py modo check_mx command:

I found the problem, I had two MX entries for the domain where it bombs out. I'll just close this issue.
