Even for a subdomain, having CNAME and TXT records on the same name isn't supposed to be okay; normally you'd work around it by reading the TXT record off an other unlikely-to-be-used subdomain of the name you're putting a CNAME on.



Now that's one I never knew about. I'll have to take a look, should be easy enough to update prose to handle that though.

edit: Updated prose to handle this


i think SRV records might be more appropriate for this use case.


This also has the advantage that it doesn't boat the TXT response for the domain. Putting it at some thing like _prose.sub.domain allows just getting the relevant record.
