• createObject
  createObject creates a new MX record. The ''host'' property of the templateObject parameter is scrubbed to remove all non-alpha numeric characters except for '@', '_', '.', '*', and '-'. The ''data'' property of the templateObject parameter is scrubbed to remove all non-alphanumeric characters for '.' and '-'. Creating an MX record updates the serial number of the domain the resource record is associated with.
• createObjects
  Create multiple MX records on a domain. This follows the same logic as ''createObject'. The serial number of the domain associated with this MX record is updated upon creation. ''createObjects'' returns Boolean ''true'' on successful creation or ''false'' if it was unable to create a resource record.
• deleteObject
  Delete a domain's MX record. '''This cannot be undone.''' Be wary of running this method. If you remove a resource record in error you will need to re-create it by creating a new SoftLayer_Dns_Domain_ResourceRecord_MxType object. The serial number of the domain associated with this MX record is updated upon deletion. ''deleteObject'' returns Boolean ''true'' on successful deletion or ''false'' if it was unable to remove a resource record.
• deleteObjects
  Remove multiple MX records from a domain. This follows the same logic as ''deleteObject'' and '''cannot be undone'''. The serial number of the domain associated with this MX record is updated upon deletion. ''deleteObjects'' returns Boolean ''true'' on successful deletion or ''false'' if it was unable to remove a resource record.
• editObject
  editObject edits an existing MX resource record. The ''host'' property of the templateObject parameter is scrubbed to remove all non-alpha numeric characters except for '@', '_', '.', '*', and '-'. The ''data'' property of the templateObject parameter is scrubbed to remove all non-alphanumeric characters for '.' and '-'. Editing an MX record updates the serial number of the domain the record is associated with. ''editObject'' returns Boolean ''true'' on a successful edit or ''false'' if it was unable to edit the resource record.
• editObjects
  Edit multiple MX records on a domain. This follows the same logic as ''createObject'. The serial number of the domain associated with this MX record is updated upon creation. ''createObjects'' returns Boolean ''true'' on successful creation or ''false'' if it was unable to create a resource record.
• getDomain
  The domain that a resource record belongs to.
• getObject
  getObject retrieves the SoftLayer_Dns_Domain_ResourceRecord_MxType object whose ID number corresponds to the ID number of the init parameter passed to the SoftLayer_Dns_Domain_ResourceRecord_MxType service. You can only retrieve resource records belonging to domains that are assigned to your SoftLayer account.
• SoftLayer_Dns_Domain_ResourceRecord_MxType
  SoftLayer_Dns_Domain_ResourceRecord_MxType is a SoftLayer_Dns_Domain_ResourceRecord object whose ''type'' property is set to 'mx' and used to describe MX resource records. MX records control which hosts are responsible as mail exchangers for a domain. For instance, in the domain example.org, an MX record whose host is '@' and data is 'mail' says that the host 'mail.example.org' is responsible for handling mail for example.org. That means mail sent to users @example.org are delivered to mail.example.org. Domains can have more than one MX record if it uses more than one server to send mail through. Multiple MX records are denoted by their priority, defined by the mxPriority property. MX records must be defined for hosts with accompanying A or AAAA resource records. They may not point mail towards a host defined by a CNAME record.
• SoftLayer_Dns_Domain_ResourceRecord_MxType
  The SoftLayer_Dns_Domain_ResourceRecord_MxType service controls the creation, modification, and deletion of MX records within a domain hosted on SoftLayer's DNS servers. It exists separately from the SoftLayer_Dns_Domain_ResourceRecord to provide control for MX priority in addition to host, data, and time-to-live.
