7.5.0

fix(dnsserver): Fix SOA record timeout issue by correcting RRSIG field formatting

- Fixed RRSIG generation by using correct field name 'signersName' (not 'signerName')
- Fixed label count calculation in RRSIG by filtering empty strings
- Added SOA records to DNSSEC signing map for proper RRSIG generation
- Added error logging and fallback values for RRSIG generation robustness
- Updated test expectations to match corrected DNSSEC RRset signing behavior
- Added comprehensive SOA test coverage including timeout, debug, and simple test scenarios

 # Changelog
 
+## 2025-06-01 - 7.5.0 - feat(dnssec)
+Add MX record DNSSEC support for proper serialization and authentication of mail exchange records
+
+- Serialize MX records by combining a 16-bit preference with the exchange domain name
+- Enable DNSSEC signature generation for MX records to authenticate mail exchange data
+- Update documentation to include the new MX record DNSSEC support in version v7.4.8
+
+## 2025-05-30 - 7.4.7 - fix(dnsserver)

+
+- Documented the primaryNameserver option in IDnsServerOptions with default behavior (ns1.{dnssecZone})
+- Clarified SOA record generation including mname, rname, serial, and TTL fields
+- Updated readme examples to demonstrate binding interfaces and proper DNS server configuration
+

+# smartdns - Implementation Hints
+
+## Architecture Overview
+
+The smartdns library is structured into three main modules:
+
+1. **Client Module** (`ts_client/`) - DNS client functionality
+2. **Server Module** (`ts_server/`) - DNS server implementation
+3. **Main Module** (`ts/`) - Re-exports both client and server
+
+## Client Module (Smartdns class)
+
+### Key Features:
+- DNS record queries (A, AAAA, TXT, MX, etc.)
+- Support for multiple DNS providers (Google DNS, Cloudflare)
+- DNS propagation checking with retry logic
+- DNSSEC verification support
+- Both HTTP-based (DoH) and Node.js DNS resolver fallback
+
+### Implementation Details:
+- Uses Cloudflare's DNS-over-HTTPS API as primary resolver
+- Falls back to Node.js DNS module for local resolution
+- Implements automatic retry logic with configurable intervals
+- Properly handles quoted TXT records and trailing dots in domain names
+
+### Key Methods:
+- `getRecordsA()`, `getRecordsAAAA()`, `getRecordsTxt()` - Type-specific queries
+- `getRecords()` - Generic record query with retry support
+- `checkUntilAvailable()` - DNS propagation verification
+- `getNameServers()` - NS record lookup
+- `makeNodeProcessUseDnsProvider()` - Configure system DNS resolver
+
+## Server Module (DnsServer class)
+
+### Key Features:
+- Full DNS server supporting UDP and HTTPS (DoH) protocols
+- DNSSEC implementation with multiple algorithms
+- Dynamic handler registration for custom responses
+- Let's Encrypt integration for automatic SSL certificates
+- Wildcard domain support with pattern matching
+
+### DNSSEC Implementation:
+- Supports ECDSA (algorithm 13), ED25519 (algorithm 15), and RSA (algorithm 8)
+- Automatic DNSKEY and DS record generation
+- RRSIG signature generation for authenticated responses
+- Key tag computation following RFC 4034
+
+### Let's Encrypt Integration:
+- Automatic SSL certificate retrieval using DNS-01 challenges
+- Dynamic TXT record handler registration for ACME validation
+- Certificate renewal and HTTPS server restart capability
+- Domain authorization filtering for security
+
+### Handler System:
+- Pattern-based domain matching using minimatch
+- Support for all common record types
+- **Multiple Handler Support**: As of v7.4.2+, multiple handlers can contribute records of the same type
+- Handler chaining for complex scenarios
+- Automatic SOA response for unhandled queries
+
+### Multiple Records Support (v7.4.2+):
+- Server now processes ALL matching handlers for a query (previously stopped after first match)
+- Enables proper multi-NS record support for domain registration
+- Supports round-robin DNS with multiple A/AAAA records
+- Allows multiple TXT records (SPF, DKIM, domain verification)
+- Each handler contributes its record to the response
+
+## Key Dependencies
+
+- `dns-packet`: DNS packet encoding/decoding (wire format)
+- `elliptic`: Cryptographic operations for DNSSEC
+- `acme-client`: Let's Encrypt certificate automation
+- `minimatch`: Glob pattern matching for domains
+- `@push.rocks/smartrequest`: HTTP client for DoH queries
+- `@tsclass/tsclass`: Type definitions for DNS records
+
+## Testing Insights
+
+The test suite demonstrates:
+- Mock ACME client for testing Let's Encrypt integration
+- Self-signed certificate generation for HTTPS testing
+- Unique port allocation to avoid conflicts
+- Proper server cleanup between tests
+- Both UDP and HTTPS query validation
+
+## Common Patterns
+
+1. **DNS Record Types**: Internally mapped to numeric values (A=1, AAAA=28, etc.)
+2. **Error Handling**: Graceful fallback and retry mechanisms
+3. **DNSSEC Workflow**: Zone → Key Generation → Signing → Verification
+4. **Certificate Flow**: Domain validation → Challenge setup → Verification → Certificate retrieval
+
+## Performance Considerations
+
+- Client implements caching via DNS-over-HTTPS responses
+- Server can handle concurrent UDP and HTTPS requests
+- DNSSEC signing is performed on-demand for efficiency
+- Handler registration is O(n) lookup but uses pattern caching
+
+## Security Notes
+
+- DNSSEC provides authentication but not encryption
+- DoH (DNS-over-HTTPS) provides both privacy and integrity
+- Let's Encrypt integration requires proper domain authorization
+- Handler patterns should be carefully designed to avoid open resolvers
+
+## Recent Improvements (v7.4.3)
+
+1. **DNSSEC RRset Signing**: Fixed to properly sign entire RRsets together instead of individual records
+2. **SOA Record Serialization**: Implemented proper SOA record encoding for DNSSEC compatibility
+3. **Configurable Primary Nameserver**: Added `primaryNameserver` option to customize SOA mname field
+
+## Recent Improvements (v7.4.8)
+
+1. **MX Record DNSSEC Support**: Implemented MX record serialization for DNSSEC signing
+   - MX records consist of a 16-bit preference value followed by the exchange domain name
+   - Properly serializes both components for DNSSEC signature generation
+   - Enables mail exchange records to be authenticated with DNSSEC
+
+## Known Limitations
+
+1. **Handler Deduplication**: If the same handler is registered multiple times, it will contribute duplicate records (this may be desired behavior for some use cases)
