-A TXT record may have more than 255 characters of data, but **not** more than 255 characters in a single string, which is problematic for long chains like DKIM keys. RFC 4408 defines how to get around this limitation : a TXT record is allowed to contain multiple strings which should then be concatenated together by the reading application. TeemIP implements this concept through a chaining mechanism. TXT records with the **exact same** RR Name may be chained together.+A TXT record may have more than 255 characters of data, but **not** more than 255 characters in a single string, which is problematic for long chains like DKIM keys.

 +In a chain, only the RR Name of the **first segment** is relevant. It is considered as the reference of the record when the db file is built. The name of the following records of the chain are just used for reference.
