manual DNS control question in 1.0.7

[kingxerxes]

Hi There,
I have just installed 1.0.7 trunk (build 20101022) and have a query about manual DNS control.

New domains are created fine and are given the correct MX records that are specified in the template.

The problem is that if i add a a custom MX record, it does not override the existing one, rather it creates duplicates.

For example:
10 mail.myserver.com [custom]
10 mail.domain.com [from template]
15 mail2.domain.com [from template]

I could just give my custom MX record a higher priority, but i know from experience that mail is often delivered to secondary or tertiary servers in any case, so this would not work.

I have the same problem with A records. For example, i would like to host a domain on ispcp and use the email features, but want to host the website elsewhere (because it is ASP). I can create a manual DNS A record for WWW and the other server IP, but i am still left with the one created from the template.

thanks for the help!
