DNS problem: query timed out looking up MX for

Trying out your client, very excited for a Windows based ACME client.

I'm having an issue even getting started though.

This is with version 0.9.85 alpha 10

Hi, you'll need to provide a valid email address as your contact (the error said it couldn't identify the mail exchange dns details). This is a requirement of the Lets Encrypt service, not certify specifically. Try deleting your vault folder and starting again with a valid email address?

It is a valid e-mail. domain is valid. Thats the problem.

It can be confirmed here http://mxtoolbox.com/SuperTool.aspx?action=mx%3anapshome.net&run=toolpage

Seems it was an issue with Letsencrypt's DNS servers, tried it again today, all better.
