> * In the NS record section - the phrase: "There should be at least two
>   of them for every zone," should be updated by: "There need not to be
>   more than six servers for a zone".

we may have a human language problem here.  "need not be" means "is allowed
but is not required."

> * In the MX section, add the following after " ... a lot of trouble.":
>   "Furthermore, it is forbidden by the current RFC documents".

and eliminate the stuff about trouble.

> * The PTR section contains a possible mistake - are you sure you can write:
>>> 123.45.67.8     IN     PTR     mail.cust.com.

yes, but only in the in-addr.arpa. zone does it have useful meaning.
