I’ve recently setup DDNS using the custom DNS features documented in the “Custom DNS” page. This is a really cool capability and works like a charm. I setup a new admin account just for this purpose, but I’d feel more comfortable with this feature if I could setup a DNS admin account that would not have admin privileges for the email accounts. Is such a thing possible, or has there been prior discussion on how something like this might be accomplished?
