prop   This will run a DNS propagation test for the SOA record
        and display the result from each of the built-in DNS servers as well
        as a check of additional worldwide DNS servers for full propagation.
        This check will first obtain the SOA from the authoritative name
        server for the given domain, then compare it with the full list of
        DNS servers. A summary at the end will report how many matches are
        found.
        NOTE: Using the 'prop' option ${ULNE}will${NC} test
        international servers.

a:     Display the 'A' record only.

mx:    This will run a check for MX records only using the
        default DNS servers.

ns:    This will run a check of the NS records from WHOIS
        using the default DNS servers.

spf:   This will run a check for SPF records.

ptr:   This will return the PTR for the given domain.

arin:  This runs an ARIN check on the 'A' record of the domain.

dmarc: This will run a check for DMARC records.

dkim:  This will run a check for DKIM records.

spam:  This will check NS, PTR, MX, SPF and DMARC for causes for
        being marked as SPAM or being blacklisted.  If this argument is
        passed with others, this is the only one that will run.

caa:   Perform a CAA check to ensure that the SSL being issued can be done
        by the CA that's issuing the SSL.

ssl:   Run a setup of standard tasks for installation of SSL certificates,
        as well as running a CAA check. If this argument is passed with
        others it will be the only one that runs.

        just additional informaiton provided over the default test.

        argument is passed with others, it will be the only one that runs.
