We pick c.root-servers.net, one of the 13 root servers (1), and ask it about e.clorox.com and learn that com is delegated to 13 name servers (2), so we ask h.gtld-servers.net where we learn that clorox.com is delegated to two name servers, including ns.rackspace.com (3), so we ask that one and learn that e.clorox.com is delegated to two name servers (4), so we ask ns1.responsys.net and get the following answer:
E.clorox.com is a domain controlled by two domain name servers at responsys.net. Both are on different IP networks. Incoming mail for e.clorox.com is handled by two mail servers at rsys2.net having a total of four IP numbers. All four of them are on the same IP network. E.clorox.com has one IP number (12.130.131.126), but the reverse is rsp.rsys2.net.
